Download entire grammar as text.
continue_stmt ::= "continue"
continue may only occur syntactically nested in a for or while loop, but not nested in a function or class definition or try statement within that loop.6.1It continues with the next cycle of the nearest enclosing loop.
Footnotes
- It may occur within an except or else clause. The restriction on occurring in the try clause is implementor's laziness and will eventually be lifted.
