Continue Statement
In AVAP, the continue statement is used to proceed with the next iteration of the closest enclosing loop. The syntax for the continue statement is as follows:
continue
The continue statement can only syntactically occur nested within a for or while loop, but not within a function or class definition inside that loop.
When continue is used within a loop that is also handling exceptions with a try statement containing a finally clause, the finally clause is executed before the next iteration of the loop begins.
for i in range(10):
try:
if i % 2 == 0:
continue
print(i)
finally:
print("In finally clause")
print("Loop ended")
In this example, the continue statement will skip the current iteration when i is even, but before moving to the next iteration, the finally clause will print "In finally clause." For odd numbers, the loop will print the number and then "In finally clause." After the loop finishes, "Loop ended" will be printed.
