It's not much difficult as you think. Let's see a simple example. for i in range(3): print(i) continue print(i) If we remove continue statement in above code, we might expect the output is 001122 Here, we added continue statement. So, output is 012 Why? It's because, the continue statement restart the current position of loop. It means, It will not execute the further code are go to next count/execution.

continue is used to skip an iteration of a loop based on certain condition # Printing without continue statement for i in range(0, 5): print(i) # Output: 0 1 2 3 4 # Printing with continue statement for i in range(0, 5): if i == 2: continue print(i) # Output: 0 1 3 4 # It skipped 2 because we put condition that if variable has value 2 then skip(continue) an iteration Now let's use this for printing even numbers for i in range(0, 11): if i % 2 != 0: continue print(i) # Output: 0 2 4 6 8 10 continue statement is used above any single statement or group of statements that you want to ignore for some condition inside a loop

The continue statement in Python returns the control to the beginning of the current loop. When encountered, the loop starts next iteration without executing the remaining statements in the current iteration. The continue statement can be used in both while and for loops. gargoyle = 30 steel_axe = 1 fighting = True while fighting: gargoyle=gargoyle - 1 print ("You attacked the gargoyle! HP left:") print (gargoyle) if gargoyle == 15: print ("He's halfway dead!") continue elif gargoyle == 10: print ("Take him down!") continue elif gargoyle == 5: print ("Now's your chance") continue if gargoyle <= 0: print ("Dead!") break print("Congrats!") In the code above, whenever continue is reached, the code below is ignored and the next iteration starts/control reaches to while. I hope this clears your query.

Suppose u have a loop In that loop u don't want an iteration to work So you can write this for( int x=1 ; x<10;x++) { If(x==7) Continue; System.out.println(x); } That continue will not let the rest of the body to run when x==7 #Output 1 2 3 4 5 6 8 9

When continue is used, iteration will straight go to the next iteration without passing the GO (Joke about monopole board game, jail messages always said "without passing the GO".
