continue
In Python, the continue statement is used within a loop to skip the rest of the code inside the loop for the current iteration and move on to the next iteration. This can be useful if you want to conditionally skip certain steps in a loop without breaking out of the loop entirely.
Here’s a simple example of how the continue statement is used:
for i in range(10):
if i % 2 == 0:
continue # Skip the rest of the loop for even numbers
print(i) # This will only execute for odd numbers
In this example, the loop iterates over the numbers 0 through 9. The continue statement is used to skip the print(i) operation whenever i is an even number. As a result, only the odd numbers are printed.
