Using continue

continue statement forces an early iteration of a loop.

In while and do-while loops, a continue statement causes control to be transferred to the conditional expression that controls the loop.
In a for loop, control goes first to the iteration portion of the for statement and then to the conditional expression.

The following code shows how to use a continue statement. 

 
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) {
    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
      System.out.print(i + " ");
      if (i % 2 == 0)
        continue;
      System.out.println("");
    }
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
