THE CONTINUE STATEMENT
The continue statement is used inside loops. When a continue statement is encountered inside a

loop, control of the program jumps to the beginning of the loop for the next iteration, skipping the
execution of the rest of the statements inside the loop for the current iteration.
Syntax:

continue
