If "continue" encounters then the statement after "continue" skips for that iteration but loop cannot stop. But if "break" encounters then loop stops.

Break leaves the loop completely and executes the statements after the loop. Whereas Continue leaves the current iteration and executes with the next value in the loop. ... A continue statement is used to end the current loop iteration and return control to the loop statement.

@Gaurav Agarwal I used your code and it prints out odd numbers instead of even numbers. https://code.sololearn.com/c3Rnm9QPRgPn/?ref=app
