Explanation
In Python, break and continue are categorized as jump statements because they alter the flow of control in loops. Jump statements, such as break and continue, are used within loop constructs to control the flow of execution. Python does not have a switch-case conditional construct. Hence, in Python, jump statements are not used with conditional constructs.
