# C continue Statement
[ C Loops](#)
The **continue** statement in C works somewhat like the **break** statement. Instead of forcing termination, however, **continue** forces the next iteration of the loop to take place, skipping any code in between.
For the **for** loop, the increment expression is still executed after the **continue** statement is executed. For the **while** and **do...while** loops, the **continue** statement causes the program to execute the conditional test again.
## Syntax
The syntax for a **continue** statement in C is:
continue;

## Example
## Example
#include
int main ()
{
/* local variable definition */
int a =10;
/* do loop execution */
do
{
if( a ==15)
{
/* skip the iteration */
a = a +1;
continue;
}
printf("value of a: %dn", a);
a++;
}while( a <20);
return 0;
}
When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following result:
value of a: 10 value of a: 11 value of a: 12 value of a: 13 value of a: 14 value of a: 16 value of a: 17 value of a: 18 value of a: 19
