In this lesson, you’ll see how execution of a for
loop can be interrupted using the break
and continue
statements. break
terminates the loop completely and continue
only terminates the current iteration.
break
example:
>>> for i in ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'qux']:
... if 'b' in i:
... break
... print(i)
...
foo
continue
usage example:
>>> for i in ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 'qux']:
... if 'b' in i:
... continue
... print(i)
...
foo
qux
