python for loop next iteration code example

Example 1: python continue

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

Example 2: python return iteration number of for loop

# Basic syntax:
for iteration, item in enumerate(iteratable_object):
	print(iteration)
# Where:
#	- item is the current element in the iteratable_object
#	- iteration is the iteration number/count for the current iteration

# Basic syntax using list comprehension:
[iteration for iteration, item in enumerate(iteratable_object)]

# Example usage:
your_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

for iteration,item in enumerate(your_list):
	(iteration, item) # Return tuples of iteration, item
--> (0, 'a')
	(1, 'b')
	(2, 'c')
	(3, 'd')

[iteration for iteration, item in enumerate(your_list)]
--> [0, 1, 2, 3]

Example 3: python while continue

## When the program execution reaches a continue statement, 
## the program execution immediately jumps back to the start 
## of the loop.
while True:
    print('Who are you?')
    name = input()
    if name != 'Joe':
        continue
    print('Hello, Joe. What is the password? (It is a fish.)')
    password = input()
    if password == 'swordfish':
        break
print('Access granted.')
