python next loop continue code example

Example 1: continue python

The continue statement in Python returns the control to the beginning of the 
while loop. The continue statement rejects all the remaining statements 
in the current iteration of the loop and moves the control back to the top of 
the loop.

The continue statement can be used in both while and for loops.

Example 2: skip to next iteration in for loop python

for i in range(1,11):
    if i==5:
        continue
    print (i)

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
