Why is the output of this code 17 and not 15?

Question

Int Result = 0;
For(int i= 0 ; I < 5 ; i++) {
If(i == 3) {
continue;
Result += 10;

} else {

Result += i;

}

System.out.println(result);

This was a question in the quiz

Answer 1

0 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 7. For 3 apparently we do nothing, unless the "result += 10" should be above the continue (giving 17). Why do you think the output should be 15?

Answer 2

this code contains many errors
like capital I in the condition and integer
R in result
but after fixing
answer is 17

Answer 3

Put simply, a loop begins, does some stuff and then ends the cycle, moving on to the next iteration. when you meet a continue statement, the loop ends immediately and starts the next iteration without executing any more code in that 'run' of the loop

Answer 4

I see :) don't forget it's < 5 too, so the loop won't execute for i == 5 as the condition is not true. The variable i is also local to that loop, and won't be visible outside (unless you first defined it outside)

Answer 5

do you mind explaining how the “continue” function works with an example?

Answer 6

i forgot about the continue and how t works, so i thought after the loop was over the outpt of the loop would be 5 & then result which is 10
