Break, Pass, and Continue Statements in Python

In Python, break, pass, and continue are control flow statements used within loops (like for and while) to alter the flow of execution.

break statement:

The break statement is used to exit a loop prematurely. When the break statement is encountered inside a loop, the loop is terminated immediately, and the program control resumes at the next statement after the loop.
Example:

for i in range(5):
    if i == 3:
        break
    print(i)

Output:
0
1
2
pass statement:

The pass statement is a null operation; nothing happens when it is executed. It is used as a placeholder when a statement is syntactically required but you do not want any action to occur.
Example:

for i in range(5):
    if i == 3:
        pass
    else:
        print(i)

Output:
0
1
2
4
continue statement:

The continue statement is used to skip the rest of the code inside a loop for the current iteration and continue with the next iteration.
Example:

for i in range(5):
    if i == 3:
        continue
    print(i)

Output:
0
1
2
4
These statements provide flexibility and control over loops in Python, allowing you to tailor the loop's behavior to specific requirements.
