it will display 2 3 4 only

Answer / muttaiah

Really, Did someone execute this code before posting your
answers..

If a novice goes through this chat he will get confused
like which answer is correct

The asnwer is 2 3 4 why because whenever control encounters
continue it will start executing the stmt only after scope
terminator which is end-if in this case.

so 2 3 4 is the answer i have executed the code also.

Answer / sakthi kumar

Actually Continue is a do nothing statement, so it will
proceed as it is.

It will display 1 2 3 4

Answer / supriya tenany

Displaying '1', depends actually on the 'if' condition, since it is in the 'if' loop.

Answer / rajeumesh

Answer # 3 is correct

Answer / santy

for the first condition:-
If A>B
next sentence
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.

If a>b, it will display only 3.(the next sentence,
ie., after fullstop/period)- is the Correct Answer.

for the second condition:-
if a>b
continue
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.

If a>b, it Will display 1 2 3 (the next statement)
This is also correct answer, b'cos continue is doing
nothing other than passing control to next statement.

for the third condition:-

if a>b
continue
display 1
end-if
display 2
display 3.
display 4.

If a>b, Will it display 2 3 4 (or) 1 2 3 4 ?

Correct answer is the 1 2 3 4.

b'cos here continue will excuite next statement and after
the 'display3.' is excuitute then control pass to 'display
4.' sentence.

hopes now you r clear ur idea.
