continue in loop

[Matej]

 

var x=0;for(var i=0;i<10;i++){    if(i%5==0){continue}    x++;}alert(x)

 

why does x=8 here? shouldnt be it 9? when i=5 the loop exits(omiting increment) and continues which means when i=5 x=5 also , so x should have end as 9.

0%5==0 and 5%5==0, so 2 increments missed.

 

i x

0 0

1 1

2 2

3 3

4 4

5 4

6 5

7 6

8 7

9 8

Because i%5==0 is true for i=0 and i=5
