Challenge: Skip Even Numbers

Explore how to control loop execution in Python by learning to skip even numbers using conditionals and the continue statement. This lesson helps you write loops that selectively process values, reinforcing your understanding of control flow and modular coding techniques.

We'll cover the following...

Sometimes you want a loop to skip certain values instead of stopping completely.

You can do this by:

Checking a condition inside the loop
Using continue to skip the current step and move on

Your task:

Use a for loop to go through the numbers 1 to 10
Check whether each number is even
Skip even numbers
Print only the numbers that are not skipped

💡 Things to keep in mind:

The % operator can help you check even vs odd numbers
continue skips the rest of the loop for the current number
The loop itself should still run from 1 to 10

When you click Run, your output should show only odd numbers.
