MATLAB: How to Keep Nested For Loop Indexes From Equaling Each Other

for loopnested

If I have two nested for loops like this, is there a way to skip the iteration where i=j?
for i=1:50
    for j=1:50
        code
    end
end

Best Answer

Use the continue keyword.
for i=1:50
    for j=1:50
        if j==i
            continue; % breaks the inner for loop at the current iteration
        else
            % Do stuff here
            fprintf('i=%d, j=%d\n',i,j);
        end
    end
end
