continue

continue is used to bypass portions of code in a loop and forces the conditional expression to be evaluated. For example, the following while loop reads characters from the keyboard until an s is typed:

while(ch = getchar()) {
  if(ch != 's') continue;  // read another char 
  process(ch);
}

The call to process( ) will not occur until ch contains the character s.
