"""Continue statement example - skip odd numbers"""

for i in range(1, 21):
    if i % 2 != 0:
        continue
    print(i)

Explanation

Line 4: for i in range(1, 21): - Iterates from 1 to 20 - Loop runs 20 times total

Line 5: if i % 2 != 0: - != is "not equal to" operator - i % 2 != 0 checks if number is odd - Odd numbers have remainder 1 when divided by 2

Line 6: continue - Skips rest of current iteration - Jumps back to start of loop (next iteration) - Code below continue doesn't execute for this iteration - Loop doesn't exit (unlike break) - Only skips this specific iteration

Line 7: print(i) - Only executes for even numbers - Odd numbers skip this due to continue - Example: i=1 -> continue (skip print), i=2 -> print, i=3 -> continue, i=4 -> print - Result: only even numbers printed
