• continue: The continue statement works the same as the break statement, but instead of sending the statement
outside the loop or switch, it is used to direct the control by sending it to the next iteration in the loop or switch.
All three types of loops can use Java continue statements.
Syntax:
for(initialisation; condition; increment or decrement)
{
if(condition)
{
continue;
}
Statements inside loop;
}
1st statement after loop;
For example:

Program 11 Write a Java program to calculate the average of the first 10 even numbers.
1 class average

2 {
3 public static void main(String[] args)
4 {

5 int i, s=0, c=0;
6 double avg;
7 for(i=1; i<=10; i++)

8 {
9 if(i%2==1)
10 {

11 continue;
12 }
13 s=s+i;
14 c++;

15 }
16 avg=s/c;
17 System.out.println("Average of even numbers "+ avg);

18 }
19 }

The output of the preceding program is as follows:
