Hi @Mahmmmoud I cannot access to your link since is expired session. :cry:

Well, the most similar to continue is pass
However there are differences, continue transfers the control of the loop to the beginning. While pass is a definitive pass (ignore the failed loop)
There is another commonly misunderstood, break is the contrary to pass if the condition in the loop is true, then it will break the flow of execution.
For more info:

Hope this helps

Hi @Mahmmmoud ,

You could streamline your code by first finding a line that starts with 'From ’ and then splitting and printing words[1].

fhand = open(fname)
count = 0
for line in fhand:
    if line.startswith('From '):
        words = line.split()
        print statement
        increment count
print count

Hope this helps!
