The continue Statement

The continue statement can be used to skip to the next iteration of a loop. The following (rather trivial) example illustrates the use of the continue statement to assign even numbers to an indexed local (Process) variable.

var i = 0, j = 0

for (j=0; j < 102; j++)

{

if (j%2) continue

// following statement executed only for even values of j

Process.evens[i] = j

i++

// following stops the loop when all elements of array are completed

if (i >= Process.evens.Size) break

}
