Passes control to the begining of the loop.

continue causes control to pass to the end of the innermost enclosing while, do, or for statement, at which point the loop continuation condition is re-evaluated. The syntax is simply

continue;
For example,
for (i = 0; i < 20; i++)
  {
    if (array[i] == 0)
      continue;
    array[i] = 1/array[i];
  }
This example changes each element in the array with its reciprocal, but skips elements which are equal to zero.
