        /*
         * The continue statement skips the current iteration of a for, while ,
         * or do-while loop. The unlabeled form skips to the end of the
         * innermost loop's body and evaluates the boolean expression that
         * controls the loop.
         */

        String searchMe = "Hello";
        int max = searchMe.length();
        int numls = 0;

        for (int i = 0; i < max; i++)
        {

            /*
             * Steps through a String, counting the occurences of the letter
             * "l". If the current character is not a l, the continue statement
             * skips the rest of the loop and proceeds to the next character. If
             * it is a "l", the program increments the letter count.
             */

            char charValue = searchMe.charAt(i);
            
            // interested only in l's
            if (charValue != 'l')
            {
                continue;
            }

            System.out.println("charAt(i) : " + charValue);
            
            // process l's
            numls++;
        }
        System.out.println("Found " + numls + ", l's in the string.");

    }
}

Output

charAt(i) : l
charAt(i) : l
Found 2, l's in the string.
