NAME

       continue - Skip to the next iteration of a loop

SYNOPSIS

       continue
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

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

EXAMPLE

       Print a line for each of the integers from 0 to 10 except 5:
              for {set x 0} {$x<10} {incr x} {
                 if {$x == 5} {
                    continue
                 }
                 puts "x is $x"
              }
