Thread: Would like Help with Continue and Break statements

For starters, you really need to indent your code properly. This was not an issue before you started using if statements and loops, but now that you have started on these, you need proper indentation so that the flow of control through your code becomes easier to see. For example:

Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {
    int sum = 0;
    int num[5];

    for (int counter = 0; counter < 5; counter++) {
        cout << "Enter a Number: ";
        cin >> num[counter];

        if (num[counter] % 2 != 0)
            sum = sum + num[counter];
    }

    cout << "Sum of Odd Numbers is: " << sum << endl; 

    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

I have tried inserting:

Code:

if(counter==7)
continue;

It sounds like what you tried should work. Perhaps you should actually insert it into your code and then tell us how does it not work, assuming that it actually does not work.

Likewise, it sounds like what you tried should work.
