Why this code print "Hello World" 5 times?

Answer 1

The loop skips the iteration when the value of i == 3 (due to the continue statement) and works for the rest normally.
The control flow -
× when i==1 => prints Hello world
× when i==2 => prints Hello world
× when i==3 => skips this iteration
× when i==4 => prints Hello world
× when i==5 => prints Hello world
× when i==6 => prints Hello world

Therefore Hello World is printed five times.

Answer 2

if(i==3)continue;

When the value of the i is 3, the printf isn't excuted.
