The keyword is used in loops.
The continue statement may only be used inside the body of a loop (for, while, do-while).
On executing a continue statement, the subsequent statements of the body of the innermost, currently executed loop are skipped and the next iteration starts.

do {
/* ... */
if (cond1) { continue; /* execution continues with the next iteration of the do-while-loop */ }
/* ... */
for (var integer j:=1; j<=10; j:= j+1) {
/* ... */
if (cond2) { continue; /* continues with the next iteration of the for-loop */ }
/* ... */
}
/* ... */
