C Programming Continue Statement

Last modified by Microchip on 2023/11/09 09:06

The continue statement causes programs to jump back to the beginning of a loop without completing the current iteration.

Syntax

continue;

continue Statement

1 int i = 0;
2
3 while (i < 5)
4 {
5    i++;
6    if (i == 2) continue; //Skip remaining iteration when i=2.
7    printf("Loop iteration %d\n", i);
8 }

The expected output for this loop is:

Loop iteration 1
Loop iteration 3
Loop iteration 4
Loop iteration 5
