C++ In a Nutshell

Name

continue statement — Reiterates a loop statement

Synopsis

               statement := continue ;

The continue statement iterates a loop statement without executing the rest of the loop body. Control passes directly to the loop condition in a do or while loop or to the iterate expression in a for loop. You cannot use continue outside of a loop statement.

Example

while (getline(cin, line)) {
  if (line.empty(  ))continue;
  parse(line);
  do_more_stuff(  );
};
