# continue and contIf statements

Similar to the break and breakif statements, except that continue and contif jump to the beginning of the loop instead of the exit.

syntax:

    (continue)

    (contif conditional_expression)

Example using the continue statement:

    ; Look for the next active item.
    (repeat
            (= curItem (data next:))
            (if (not curItem)
                    (continue) ; jump back to begining of loop
            )

            ; do more stuff before looping...
    )

Example using the contif statement:

    ; Look for the next active item.
    (repeat
            (= curItem (data next:))
            (contif (not curItem))  ; maybe jump back to begining of loop

            ; do more stuff before looping...
    )
