Break, Continue and Pass in Python

Jump to specific section:

1. Break
2. Continue
3. pass

Break

Example:

for i in range(10):
print(i)
if (i==5):
    print("Break loop if i = 5")
    break
    

Output:

0
1
2
3
4
5
Break loop if i = 5 

Continue

Example:

for i in range(10):
    if (i==5):
        print("When i = 5, code below continue will not execute for current iteration")
        continue
    print(i)
    

Output:

0
1
2
3
4
When i = 5, code below continue will not execute for current iteration

Pass

Let us see what will happend if we leave block empty.

for i in range(10):
    # this block is left empty, this line 
    # is not considered as code 
    # because this is comment

Output:

File "", line 4
# because this is comment
^
IndentationError: expected an indented block after 'for' statement on line 1

Now we will use pass keyword

for i in range(10):
    # this block is left empty, this line 
    # is not considered as code 
    # because this is comment
    pass

Output:

Output is empty and no any error arise.
