We -as developers- know that most programming languages have CONTINUE statement to skip to next iteration of the loop, but unfortunately we didn't have in Oracle, so we used to do workaround code to imitate CONTINUE functionality. Say we have the following loop code:
SET serveroutput ON
DECLARE
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1 .. 10
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('The current number is ' || i);
END LOOP;
END;
