* Add the text "In addition to the break statement which opts out of the iteration when the condition is false is the continue statement.

In contrast to the `break` statement which opts out of the iteration when the condition is false, the `continue` statement skips the condition when the code is true, and continues up until the condition is false.
Using the above example again, let's see the functionality of the `continue` statement
```javascript
for (var elephant = 1; elephant < 10; elephant+=2) {
if (elephant === 7) {
continue;
}
console.info('elephant is ' + elephant);
}
output:
elephant is 1
elephant is 3
elephant is 5
elephant is 9
```
