Let's dig deeper and see how this code works! i = 4, 4 < 8, 4 != 6, sum = 0, sum = sum + i = 0 + 4 = 4; i = 5, 5 < 8, 5 != 6, sum = 4, sum = sum + i = 4 + 5 = 9; i = 6, 6 < 8, 6 == 6, sum = 9, sum = sum + i - skipped because of continue; i = 7, 7 < 8, 7 != 6, sum =9 , sum = sum + i = 9 + 7 = 16; i = 8, 8 == 8 code stops working.

the numbers will be 4,5,7. so sum= 4+5+7=16

Inderdaad it is 16 because we overstappen 6 and than continue with 7
