Discussion regarding the book 'A Byte of Python'

Gary,
    I've tested your example.  And it works well as it expects.  If I input 'he' -- a less-than-3-characters string, 'first statement...' and 'second statement...' is printed, and 'Input is of sufficient length' won't be output.

                                                      Juan Shen

>     if len(s) < 3:
>         print 'first statement before continue'
>         print 'second statement before continue'
>         continue
>     print 'Input is of sufficient length'
> 2. As the example is shown, it doesn't matter what size string is input, the script will always output "Input is of sufficent length", as long as the string isn't quit.
