Terry says
<<Note, although the word 'continue' might suggest a NOP type
instruction (NOP = No OPeration ... just continue forward!), that is
not what occurs in C++ (instead, a jump occurs as described in the
previous sentence) ... they should have chosen a better name for
the statement !>>
I guess we don't teach the old stuff any more :-)
Continue has ancient roots in loopology from Fortran days :-)
