Continue a While/Do/For loop.
ContinueLoop [level]
| level | [optional] The level of the loop to restart. The default is 1 (meaning the current loop). |
ContinueLoop will continue execution of the loop at the expression testing statement (that is the While, Until or Next statement).
A negative level or zero value has no effect.
Even though any program that uses ContinueLoop can be rewritten using If-ElseIf-EndIf statements, ContinueLoop can make long scripts easier to understand.
Be careful with While/Do loops; you can create infinite loops by using ContinueLoop incorrectly.
