	By trying it out in the interactive window? (Note: Python 2.7 -- though
Python 3 doesn't need the "str(x)" either -- print will still ask for the
printable form of x.

>>> for x in range(0,5):
... 	if (x % 2) == 0:
... 		next
... 	print x
... 	
<built-in function next>
0
1
<built-in function next>
2
3
<built-in function next>
4
>>> 

>>> for x in range(0,5):
... 	if (x % 2) == 0:
... 		next()
... 	print x
... 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 3, in <module>
TypeError: next expected at least 1 arguments, got 0
>>> 

>>> for x in range(0,5):
... 	if (x % 2) == 0:
... 		continue
... 	print x
...
