Swift program to demonstrate the continue statement

Here, we are going to demonstrate the continue statement in Swift programming language.
Submitted by Nidhi, on June 09, 2021

Problem Solution:

Here, we will use the continue statement. The continue statement is used to skip the execution of statements in the loop body.

Program/Source Code:

The source code to demonstrate the continue statement is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

// Swift program to demonstrate the
// continue statement

var cnt:Int = 0;

while(cnt < 10)
{
    cnt = cnt + 1;
    if(cnt == 5)
    {
        print("Skipping below statements");
        continue;
    }

    print(cnt);
}

Output:

1
2
3
4
Skipping below statements
6
7
8
9
10

...Program finished with exit code 0
Press ENTER to exit console.

Explanation:

In the above program, we imported a package Swift to use the print() function using the below statement,

import Swift;

Here, we created an integer variable cnt initialized with 0 and check the condition to execute loop body 10 times but we skipped the execution of loop body when the value of cnt is 5 using the continue statement.
