PHP continue statement

PHP “continue” statement is used within the loops to skip the current loop iteration and goes to the next iteration.

See the syntax structure of “continue statement”

<?php 
 while ( expression 1)
  {
  if ( expression 2 )
  {
  continue ;
  }
  // Operation Statements
  }
?>

Example of PHP continue statement

<?php

 $a = 0;
while ( $a < 3)
{
$a++;
$b = 0;
while ( $b < 5)
{
 $b++;
 if ($b==3)
 {
 continue;
 }
 echo $a*$b." ";
}
echo "
";
}

?>

Output of this program will be
1 2 4 5
2 4 8 10
3 6 12 15

Example of PHP while statement

See the following continue syntax structure

while ( expression 1)
{
while ( expression 2 )
{
if ( expression 3 )
{
continue 2;
}
// Operation Statements
}
}

In this structure , if expression 3 becomes TRUE , continue statement will execute with parameter 2. So it will skip the current iteration in while loop with expression 2 also with current iteration with first while loop with expression 1. Next iteration will start from the first while loop.
