Answer Posted / satish k
Explanation for Next sentence:
sol:
code:
If A>B
next sentence
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.
So, over here the output is no doubt 3 provided A>B id true.
well, but it works is, the next sentence will always search
for the next executable sentence in the flow.
Here, the next executable sentence was display 3.so, it
executes and gives output as 3.
Explanation for Continue:
code:
if a>b
continue
end-if
display 1
display 2.
display 3.
Here in Continue statement, it is just like 'do nothing'.
so, it will executes all the display statements.
