Question

What is the difference between break and continue in PHP?

Answer 1

I am not writing anything same here. Just a changelog note from PHP manual.

Changelog for continue

Version Description

7.0.0 - continue outside of a loop or switch control structure is now detected at compile-time instead of run-time as before, and triggers an E_COMPILE_ERROR.

5.4.0   continue 0; is no longer valid. In previous versions it was interpreted the same as continue 1;.

5.4.0   Removed the ability to pass in variables (e.g., $num = 2; continue $num;) as the numerical argument.
