💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a number other than 3 in the condition.

Forgetting to use the continue statement.

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

Python

for num in range(1, 7):
    if num % 2 == [1]:
        continue

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 1 instead of 0 in the condition.

Not using the modulo operator correctly.

The expression num % 2 == 0 checks if a number is even. The continue skips even numbers.

Fix the error in the code to correctly skip printing the word 'skip'.

Python

words = ['go', 'skip', 'stop']
for word in words:
    if word == [1]:
        continue
    print(word)

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Not using quotes around the string.

Using the wrong string value.

Strings must be enclosed in quotes. Using double quotes "skip" or single quotes is correct. Option B uses double quotes correctly.

4fill in blank

Fill both blanks to skip numbers less than 4 and print the rest.

Python

for n in range(1, 7):
    if n [1] 4:
        continue
    print(n)

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the wrong comparison operator.

Skipping numbers greater than 4 instead.

The condition n < 4 skips numbers less than 4 using continue.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to skip words starting with 'a' and print others in uppercase.

Python

words = ['apple', 'banana', 'avocado', 'cherry']
for w in words:
    if w[1]('a'):
        continue
    print(w[2]())

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Forgetting parentheses after method names.

Using the wrong string method.

The method startswith('a') checks if a word starts with 'a'. The upper() method converts the word to uppercase before printing.
