CONTINUE is an instruction of the Extended Structured Text (ExST).
The instruction is used inside FOR, WHILE and REPEAT loops in order to jump to the beginning of the next execution of the loop.
Example
FOR Counter:=1 TO 5 BY 1 DO INT1:=INT1/2; IF INT1=0 THEN CONTINUE; (* to avoid a division by zero *) END_IF Var1:=Var1/INT1; (* executed, if INT1 is not 0 *) END_FOR; Erg:=Var1;
