PASCAL, Statements, CONTINUE

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  The body of a  FOR,  WHILE,  or  REPEAT  loop  can  include  the
  CONTINUE  statement.   The CONTINUE statement is equivalent to a
  GOTO to a label placed at the end of the statements in the  body
  of  the FOR, WHILE, or REPEAT statement.  The CONTINUE statement
  appears as a single word:

   CONTINUE

  In a loop that processes a series of data items, you can use the
  CONTINUE  statement  to  indicate that the rest of the loop does
  not apply to the current  item,  and  that  the  program  should
  continue to the next statement.

  Use caution when using the  CONTINUE  statement  because  future
  additions  to  the  code  may  result  in the CONTINUE statement
  continuing with a different loop than was originally intended.
