Basic jump statements in Python
A

I'm an aspiring Software Engineer specializing in web development. I have built various web apps and utilities using Javascript, ReactJS and NodeJS technologies.

I'm currently working on a full-stack project named JU Query, an online platform for University students to connect with peers, juniors and seniors, ask and answer doubts, help each other out as a growing community.

I'm a polyglot programmer in diverse languages such as C, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript and TypeScript.

I'm also a blogger where I have published various posts on programming, python language and course works to share my knowledge and spread awareness. I have received more than 10,000+ reads from platforms like Medium, Dev and Hackernoon.

I love to contribute to the world through community work. I'm a community leader where I spread awareness, promote and educate students on how to code. I have personally taught Internet basics and front end web development for over 400+ students. I have additionally participated in several initiatives as an NSS volunteer.

I'm a passionate learner who has gained knowledge from numerous events and workshops. I have learnt about Aeromodelling, Rover sensor project, Smart devices using the internet of things. And I have also won the runners up position in the open day competition conducted by IIAEM for building a cost-efficient Hydraulic Arm.

My hobbies include sketching, graphic design, reading books, and watching selective movies.

Jump statements can be used to modify the behaviour of conditional and iterative statements.

break and continue statements fall under the jump statements category.

break statement

  • The break statement, borrowed from the C programming language, breaks out of the current loop when encountered.

  • So, any further iterations will not be executed as the break statement changed the flow of the program by coming out of the loop.

Example:

Output:

Searching...  
Searching...  
Searching...  
Searching...  
Found the treasure

continue statement

  • The continue statement, borrowed from the C programming language, continues with the next iteration of the loop when encountered.

  • So, any code following the continue statement in a loop will be skipped and the loop will continue to the next iteration.

Example:

Output:

Found an even number 2  
Found an odd number 3  
Found an even number 4  
Found an odd number 5  
Found an even number 6  
Found an odd number 7  
Found an even number 8  
Found an odd number 9
