NAME

8       continue - Skip to the next iteration of a loop

SYNOPSIS

11       continue
12______________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

15       This  command is typically invoked inside the body of a looping command
16       such as for or foreach or while.  It returns a 4 (TCL_CONTINUE)  result
17       code, which causes a continue exception to occur.  The exception causes
18       the current script to be aborted out to the innermost  containing  loop
19       command,  which  then  continues  with  the next iteration of the loop.
20       Catch exceptions are also handled in a few other  situations,  such  as
21       the catch command and the outermost scripts of procedure bodies.
22

EXAMPLE

24       Print a line for each of the integers from 0 to 10 except 5:
25
26              for {set x 0} {$x<10} {incr x} {
27                  if {$x == 5} {
28                      continue
29                  }
30                  puts "x is $x"
31              }
