Question

What's the difference between put keyword "continue" in if statement and loop ?

Answer 1

"continue" skips the current iteration of a loop. You cannot use "continue" in if-statement if there is no loop.

for(int i = 1; i<=5; i++){
if(i==3) continue;
System.out.print(i);
}

Output: 1245 (3 has been skipped here)
