Should I continue, or should i break?
This is one of the oldies out of my "PHP is weird"-box. I dug it up from an old post of mine in the GoT forums.
What would you expect this code to do?
#!php
for( $i = 1; $i <= 5; $i ++) {
switch($i) {
case 2: case 4:
continue;
}
echo $i, "\n";
}
It should read
1
3
5
right?
No it doesn't. Read this:
continue continue is used within looping structures to skip the rest of the current loop iteration and continue execution at the beginning of the next iteration.
Note: Note that in PHP the switch statement is considered a looping structure for the purposes of continue.
(...)
switch Note: Note that unlike some other languages, the continue statement applies to switch and acts similar to break. If you have a switch inside a loop and wish to continue to the next iteration of the outer loop, use continue 2.
