What the difference is between CONTINUE and NEXT SENTENCE ?
Submitted by: AdministratorThey appear to be similar, that is, the control goes to the next sentence in the paragraph. But, Next Sentence would
take the control to the sentence after it finds a full stop (.). Check out by writing the following code example, one if
sentence followed by 3 display statements (sorry they appear one line here because of formatting restrictions) If 1 0
then next sentence end if display ‘line 1' display ‘line 2'. display ‘line 3'. Note- there is a dot (.) only at the end of the line.
