PHP Continue

The continue statement can be used to jump out of the current iteration of a loop, and continue with the next.

Continue in For Loops

The continue statement stops the current iteration in the for loop and continue with the next.

for ($x = 0; $x < 10; $x++) {
  if ($x == 4) {
    continue;
  }
  echo "The number is: $x <br>";
}

Continue in While Loop

The continue statement stops the current iteration in the while loop and continue with the next.

$x = 0;

while($x < 10) {
  if ($x == 4) {
    continue;
  }
  echo "The number is: $x <br>";
  $x++;
}

Continue in Do While Loop

The continue statement stops the current iteration in the do...while loop and continue with the next.

$i = 0;

do {
  $i++;
  if ($i == 3) continue;
  echo $i;
} while ($i < 6);

Continue in For Each Loop

The continue statement stops the current iteration in the foreach loop and continue with the next.

$colors = array("red", "green", "blue", "yellow");

foreach ($colors as $x) {
  if ($x == "blue") continue;
  echo "$x <br>";
}
