The code will cause a syntax error due to improper use of 'else' with 'continue' without braces.
Final Answer:
Syntax error: 'else' cannot be used with 'continue' like this. -> Option D
Quick Check:
Improper if-else syntax with continue/break causes error [OK]

Quick Trick: Use braces for if-else with continue/break [OK]
