Dear R list,


I was wondering if there is an easy fix to this problem (there are workarounds, 
as always):

Within a for loop, we can use "next" to skip to the next index,
but how can we skip the next n indices?

So, I would like something that looks like;

for(i in 1:10){

   if(somecondition)next(5)

}

Is there a way?

Don't use a for loop, use a while loop:

i <- 1
while (i < 11) {
  if (somecondition) i <- i+5
  else {
    blah blah blah
    i <- i+1
  }
}
