Expand description
Skip to the next iteration of a loop.
When continue
is encountered, the current iteration is terminated, returning control to the
loop head, typically continuing with the next iteration.
// Printing odd numbers by skipping even ones
for number in 1..=10 {
if number % 2 == 0 {
continue;
}
println!("{number}");
}
RunLike break
, continue
is normally associated with the innermost enclosing loop, but labels
may be used to specify the affected loop.
// Print Odd numbers under 30 with unit <= 5
'tens: for ten in 0..3 {
'_units: for unit in 0..=9 {
if unit % 2 == 0 {
continue;
}
if unit > 5 {
continue 'tens;
}
println!("{}", ten * 10 + unit);
}
}
