Java - Skip values in for loop

Question

I am trying to skip values using a for loop. Something like

for(int i = 32; i <= 255 - but skip 128 to 159; i++) {

    char ascii = (char) i;
    System.out.println(ascii);

}

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Answer 1

Use this at the beginning of your loop:

for(int i = 32; i < 256; i++) {
    if(i == 128) i = 160;
    //...
}

This is MUCH better than simply continuing. You don't want to iterate over 128 to 159; you'd be wasting time.
