about the use of "continue" 1

[chopstick]

I have writen this code here:

while (ch=getchar()!=EOF)
  {
        if(ch=='\n'||ch==' ')
        continue;
        else
        {
            counter1=0;
            while(counter1<=1000)
            {
            counter=0;
            while(counter<=1000000)
            {
                                counter++;
                                }
                                counter1++;
                                
                                }
                                printf("\a");
                                
        count++;
        }
        }

as I know, continue will bring me to the next cycle of the most outer while loop. But I can still hear the beep sound after pressing "enter", counld someone help?

add ch=='\r' to your list of conditions

Precedence and order evaluation - a classic C programmer's error. Must be:

while ((ch=getchar())!=EOF)
...

You get 1 (true) in ch, not a char from a console...

You should indent your code, that's difficult to read without identation.

Furthermore, the continue and else are redundant just one of them will offer the functionality you're looking for.
