Part of the Fundamentals section of Coddy's Python journey — lesson 38 of 77.
The continue statement stops the current iteration and continues to the next iteration. For example:
for i in range(3, 9):
if i == 5:
continue
print(i)The loop will iterate through the numbers from 3 to 8, and when it reaches i=5 it will skip that iteration and continue to the next one. The output is:
3
4
6
7
8Notice, number 5 is not in the output.
Challenge
BeginnerYou are given a code which prints the numbers from 1 to 20 (including).
Your task is to add if and continue statements so that only the even numbers will be printed (2, 4, 6, ...).
Try it yourself
for i in range(1, 21):
print(i)
