while continue java,Java的while循环中的continue语句导致无限循环

I'm trying to create a while loop with a continue statement. However it seems to be causing an infinite loop and I can't figure out why.

The code below to me seems like it should start with the var tasksToDo at 3 then decrement down to 0 skipping number 2 on the way.

var tasksToDo = 3

while (tasksToDo > 0) {

if (tasksToDo == 2) {

continue;

}

console.log('there are ' + tasksToDo + ' tasks');

tasksToDo--;

}

解决方案

conitnue, will go back to the while loop. and tasksToDo will never get decremented further than 2.

var tasksToDo = 3

while (tasksToDo > 0) {

if (tasksToDo == 2) {

tasksToDo--; // Should be here too.

continue;

}

console.log('there are ' + tasksToDo + ' tasks');

tasksToDo--;

}
