CONTINUE STATEMENT

▶ CONTINUE STATEMENT

Continue causes the system to stop execution of a compound statement and continue in the next iteration of the enclosing looping statement.

Here is a continue example from the examples:

print 'module start'

nums 1 2 3

nums num ~

print 'loop iter: ' + num

num 2 ?

print 'CONTINUE'

! next statements in the enclosing looping block will not be executed...

print 'statement after breaking...'

print 'loop iter end'

print 'module end'

module start
loop iter: 1
loop iter end
loop iter: 2
CONTINUE
loop iter: 3
loop iter end
module end

The two characters code '%~', is Tyl code for continue statement, and Tyl Symbolizer will replace it with '⇧'.

Similar to other break statements, continue statment can run a statement before continuing:

go:

primes 10

primes max:

max ++

i max ~

i 0 ? %~

dmax 1 + math.floor math.sqrt i

idiv div 0

d dmax ~

d <= 1 ? %~

idiv integraldivision i d ? % div d

idiv > 0 ? %~ print i + ' = ' + div + ' * ' + idiv

print i + ' is prime'

integraldivision number divisor:

division number / divisor

result math.floor division

result division ? result \ 0

1 is prime
2 is prime
3 is prime
4 = 2 * 2
5 is prime
6 = 2 * 3
7 is prime
8 = 2 * 4
9 = 3 * 3
10 = 2 * 5
