continue loop

Continuing a “for” Loop

When you put the continue keyword in a for loop, execution jumps to the update expression (i++ in the example):

for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
    if (i === 1) {
        continue;
    }
    console.log(i);
}

Expected output:

0 2

Continuing a While Loop

When you continue in a while loop, execution jumps to the condition (i < 3 in the example):

var i = 0;
while (i < 3) {
    if (i === 1) {
        i = 2;
        continue;
    }
    console.log(i);
    i++;
}

Expected output:

0 2
