Really, Did someone execute this code before posting your
answers..
If a novice goes through this chat he will get confused
like which answer is correct
The asnwer is 2 3 4 why because whenever control encounters
continue it will start executing the stmt only after scope
terminator which is end-if in this case.
so 2 3 4 is the answer i have executed the code also.

Answer / supriya tenany
Displaying '1', depends actually on the 'if' condition, since it is in the 'if' loop.

Answer / santy
for the first condition:-
If A>B
next sentence
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.
If a>b, it will display only 3.(the next sentence,
ie., after fullstop/period)- is the Correct Answer.
for the second condition:-
if a>b
continue
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.
If a>b, it Will display 1 2 3 (the next statement)
This is also correct answer, b'cos continue is doing
nothing other than passing control to next statement.
for the third condition:-
if a>b
continue
display 1
end-if
display 2
display 3.
display 4.
If a>b, Will it display 2 3 4 (or) 1 2 3 4 ?
Correct answer is the 1 2 3 4.
b'cos here continue will excuite next statement and after
the 'display3.' is excuitute then control pass to 'display
4.' sentence.
hopes now you r clear ur idea.
