move to next iteration of for loop python code example
Example 1: python how to skip iteration
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 2: python exit loop iteration
alphabet = ['a' , 'b' , 'c' , 'd' ]
for letter in alphabet:
if letter == 'b' :
continue
#continues to next iteration
print( letter )
for letter in alphabet:
if letter == 'b' :
break
#terminates current loop
print( letter )
for letter in alphabet:
if letter == 'b' :
pass
#does nothing
print( letter )
