Continue statement in Java - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to skip printing the number 3 using the continue statement.

Java

for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
    if (i == [1]) {
        continue;
    }
    System.out.println(i);
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using break instead of continue, which stops the whole loop.

Checking for the wrong number to skip.

The continue statement skips the current loop iteration when i equals 3, so 3 is not printed.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to skip all even numbers using continue.

Java

for (int i = 1; i <= 6; i++) {
    if (i % 2 == [1]) {
        continue;
    }
    System.out.print(i + " ");
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 1 instead of 0, which skips odd numbers instead.

Forgetting to use continue inside the if.

The condition i % 2 == 0 is true for even numbers, so continue skips printing them.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the loop to correctly skip printing negative numbers.

Java

int[] numbers = {2, -3, 5, -1, 4};
for (int num : numbers) {
    if (num [1] 0) {
        continue;
    }
    System.out.print(num + " ");
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using > instead of <, which skips positive numbers.

Using == 0, which skips zero only.

To skip negative numbers, continue when num is less than 0.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to skip numbers divisible by 3 and print others.

Java

for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
    if (i [1] 3 == [2]) {
        continue;
    }
    System.out.print(i + " ");
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using != instead of ==, which skips numbers not divisible by 3.

Using > instead of ==, which is incorrect syntax.

The condition i % 3 == 0 is true for numbers divisible by 3, so continue skips them.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to skip numbers less than 5 and print others.

Java

for (int i = 1; i <= 7; i++) {
    if (i [1] [2]) {
        continue;
    }
    System.out.print(i + " ");
}

D==

Attempts:

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using >= instead of <, which skips numbers greater or equal to 5.

Using == 5, which skips only number 5.

The condition i < 5 is true for numbers less than 5, so continue skips them.
