The use of else or elif becomes redundant and can be dropped if the last statement under the leading if / elif block is a continue statement. In the case of an elif after continue, it can be written as a separate if block. For else blocks after continue, the statements can be shifted out of else. Please refer to the examples below for reference.

Refactoring the code this way can improve code-readability and make it easier to maintain.

Bad practice

def classify_number(x):
    for num in range(x):
        if x % 2 == 0:
            continue
        else:
            print(f"{num} is Odd}")

Preferred:

def classify_number(x):
    for num in range(x):
        if x % 2 == 0:
            continue
        print(f"{num} is Odd}")
