Is there a difference between `continue` and `pass` in a for loop in python?

Question

Is there any significant difference between the two python keywords continue and pass like in the examples

for element in some_list         


        

Answer 1

Consider it this way:

Pass: Python works purely on indentation! There are no empty curly braces, unlike other languages.

So, if you want to do nothing in case a condition is true there is no option other than pass.

Continue: This is useful only in case of loops. In case, for a range of values, you don't want to execute the remaining statements of the loop after that condition is true for that particular pass, then you will have to use continue.
