The Complete Python Course - Continue Statement

The video tutorial explains the concept of control transfer in loops, focusing on the 'continue' statement in Python. It highlights the difference between 'break' and 'continue', showing how 'continue' returns control to the start of the loop, skipping the current iteration. The syntax of 'continue' is discussed, followed by a practical example demonstrating its use in a loop to skip a specific value. The tutorial concludes by summarizing the purpose and effect of the 'continue' statement in loop execution.

What is the primary function of the 'continue' statement in a loop?

• To exit the loop entirely

• To skip the current iteration and return to the start of the loop

• To pause the loop temporarily

• To terminate the program

How does the 'continue' statement differ from the 'break' statement?

• 'Continue' exits the loop, while 'break' skips to the next iteration

• 'Continue' and 'break' perform the same function

• 'Continue' skips the current iteration, while 'break' exits the loop

• 'Continue' pauses the loop, while 'break' continues it

What is the correct syntax for using the 'continue' statement in Python?

• Continue

• continue;

• continue()

• continue

In the provided example, what happens when the loop encounters the letter 'P'?

• The loop exits completely

• The loop skips printing 'P' and continues with the next iteration

• The loop pauses and waits for user input

• The loop prints 'P' twice

What is the output of the example when the 'continue' statement is used?

• The string is printed without the letter 'P'

• The string is printed in reverse

• The entire string including 'P' is printed

• The program throws an error
