Continue Statement Property

If there is a "continue" statement at the current line and tab at time t, then at time t + 1, the "continue" state is updated to "continuing." More formally,

if the following are true:

  • the line at time t = i
  • the tab at time t = j
  • statement at line i, tab j = continue

then "continue" state at (t + 1) = "continuing"

When LW Python encounters a "continue" statement, it will set the "continue" state to "continuing," which signals LW Python to decrease the tab number until it finds a "while" statement.

For example,

if the following are true:

  • the line at time 88 = 6
  • the tab at time 88 = 2
  • statement at line 6, tab 2 = continue

then "continue" state at (88 + 1) = "continuing"

Try stepping through the simulator to see "Continue" state set to "continuing" on line 6.
