Hi All,


I couldn't understand the difference between pass and continue keywords, could you explain to me?


Taken from the docs at http://docs.python.org/tutorial/controlflow.html

The continue statement continues the next iteration of a loop for eg.
for line in file:
   if not line.strip():  # If the line is empty then
       continue

The pass statement does nothing. It can be used when a statement is required syntactically but the program requires no action. For example:

while True:
   pass  # Busy-wait for keyboard interrupt (Ctrl+C)
