While is a macro also.
while (a) b
translates into:

"if (a) exit;" & b & continue

Continue is not for loops, it means go back the where the '{' started, as I
recall.
You should be able to use continue & exit in any block. It doesn't have to
be a loop, although you could say using continue or exit makes it a loop.
