While loops using break and continue statements

Question

I'm beginner. What is break and continue statement used for for a while statement?

while:
 break
 continue

Answer 1

These two key words can be used in a loop to change how it behaves. The break statement terminates the loop and moves on the next executable statement. The continue statement skips the rest of the code for the current pass of the loop and goes to the top to the test expression.

Example:

while True:
 if condition:
 break # exits loop
 if condition:
 continue # skips statements in ... and goes back to top
 ...

This loop would iterate until it reaches a break statement.

Answer 2

continue is used to skip a particular iteration of the loop

 while(i<5):
 if i == 3:
 continue
 print(i)
 i++

break is used to get out of a loop

 while(i<5):
 if i == 3:
 break
 print(i)
 i++
