Difference between continue and pass in python

Pass is a "do-nothing" statement. Best used with a if-else or try-except condition

Continue means "jump to start of loop", ignoring rest of the statements in the loop

Code	Output
for r in [1,2,3]:    print(r)    continue    print(r,"\tagain")	1 2 3
for r in [1,2,3]:    print(r)    pass    print(r,"again")	1 (1, 'again') 2 (2, 'again') 3 (3, 'again')
for r in [1,2,3]:    if r%2!=0:       print(r)    else:       pass	1 3
for r in [1,2,3]:    if r%2==0:       continue    print(r) Bad coding practice according to me but nevertheless this is possible.	1 3
