Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand the goal and loop behavior
We want to print numbers 1 to 5 but skip printing 3. Using continue skips the current loop iteration.Step 2: Analyze each option
for i in range(1,6): if i == 3: continue print(i) uses continue to skip printing 3 and prints all others. Others either break early or print 3.Final Answer:
for i in range(1,6): if i == 3: continue print(i) -> Option DQuick Check:
continue skips printing 3 [OK]
Quick Trick: Use continue to skip unwanted loop steps [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Using break which stops the loop entirely
- Using pass which does nothing to skip printing
- Incorrect range limits causing missing numbers
