I've just learnt about this command today:

continue

Obviously it's considered standard syntax because it's highlighted. However I've never been taught it or seen it before, and yet I may have thought of using this command but thought it didn't exist. It seems like basic common-sense really that one can force a skip of a loop but I've never known I could.

Should this be added to the Complete Reference or is it better to encourage nesting stuff in blocks to protect them from the rest of the loop

break is also a nice function, but it completly gets you out of a loop

ie:
Code:

  for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++){
    if(i == 10) continue;
    if(i == 20) break;
    println(i);
  }
