Definition: The continue statement is used within loops to bypass the rest of the code for the current run through the loop. With while (and do/while) loops it jumps to the spot in the loop where the while statement is evaluated again to see whether to continue around the loop. With for loops it jumps to the spot there the third statement in the for loop definition is run and continues from there. Continue is a reserved word and cannot be used for anything other than bypassing loop processing.
Examples:
if (a == b) continue;
