Why this continue statement is not working?

Pease explain why continue statement is not working in this code . Why I am getting output as "Cherry" Only fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] for x in fruits: if x == "banana": continue print(x)

Aman Kumar # Your Code fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] for x in fruits: # In first iteration it's apple then banana and at last it's cherry if x == "banana": continue # Because of no indentation the compiler takes this print statement out of the loop and as the last item was cherry the value of x will the last element i.e. cherry print(x) For correct code se AJ's answer.

Aman Kumar Indentation problem. You have to use print statement just below if statement like this fruits = ["apple", "banana", "cherry"] for x in fruits: if x == "banana": continue print(x)

Aman Kumar As there is no opening and closing curly brackets in Python, indentation is more important. As you were printing value of x outside the loop so whichever last value comes that will be print. That's why the output was "Cherry"

The code works. It doesn't show any error. But why it is printing "Cherry" Only. That's my doubt
