PHP: go back to the start of loop using a sort of 'break'?

Question

Hi i have a loop and i was wondering if there was a command that you can jump back to the start of the loop and ignore the rest of the code in the loop

example:

for ($index = 0; $index < 10; $index++) 
{
    if ($index == 6)
        that command to go the start of the loop

    echo "$index, ";
}

should output

1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9 and skip the six

sort of same result as

for ($index = 0; $index < 10; $index++) 
{
    if ($index != 6)
        echo "$index, ";
}

is there a command for that?

thanks, matthy

Answer 1

The keyword to use is continue:

for ($index = 0; $index < 10; $index++) 
{
    if ($index == 6)
        continue; // Skips everything below it and jumps to next iteration

    echo "$index, ";
}

As an aside, to get your desired output your for line should read this instead (unless you missed zero):

for ($index = 1; $index < 10; $index++) 

Answer 2

Yes, continue advances to the next iteration.
