continue statement python code example

Example 1: python continue

for i in range(10):
  if i == 3: # skips if i is 3
    continue
  print(i)

Example 2: continue statement python

import numpy as np
values=np.arange(0,10)
for value in values:
  if value==3:
    continue
  elif value==8:
    print('Eight value')
  elif value==9:
    break

Example 3: python for continue

>>> for num in range(2, 10):
...     if num % 2 == 0:
...         print("Found an even number", num)
...         continue
...     print("Found a number", num)
Found an even number 2
Found a number 3
Found an even number 4
Found a number 5
Found an even number 6
Found a number 7
Found an even number 8
Found a number 9

Example 4: python continue

nums = [7,3,-1,8,-9]
positive_nums = []

for num in nums:
    if num < 0: #skips to the next iteration
        continue
    positive_nums.append(num)
        
print(positive_nums) # 7,3,8

Example 5: python break continue

words = ["rain", "sun", "moon", "exit", "weather"]
  
for word in words:
        #checking for the breaking condition
        if word == "exit" :
                #if the condition is true, then break the loop
                break;
        if word == "moon" :
                #this statement will be executed
                print("moon is skipped")
                continue
                #this statement won't be executed
                print ("This won't be printed")  
        #Otherwise, print the word
        print (word)

Example 6: continue in python

# Example of continue loop:

for number is range (0,5):
    # If the number is 4, skip the rest of the loop and continue from the top.
    if number == 4:
      continue
    
    print(f"Number is: {number}")
