Error in continue statement
#1
for i in range(len(openings)):
    
    # Extraction job description 
    
    opening = openings[i].find_all("p")

    # To check if final result is announced for this job
    
    if '(Final Result Announced)' in opening[0].text:
        continue

    description = opening[0].text.split('(')
    if len(description)>2:
        job_description = description[0] + '- ' + description[1].split(')')[0]
    else:
        job_description = description[0]
    my_dictionary["job_description"] = job_description

    # Extracting advertisement number

    advertisement = opening[1].text.split('(')[1].split(')')[0]
    my_dictionary["adv_no"] = advertisement[18:]
        
    # Extracting links to download advertisement from

    download_advertisement_and_apply = links[i].find_all("a")
    download_advertisement = 'https://sbi.co.in/' + download_advertisement_and_apply[0].get('href')
    my_dictionary["adv_link"] = download_advertisement

    # Extracting links to apply online

    apply = download_advertisement_and_apply[1].get('href')
    my_dictionary["apply_link"] = apply 
I know when i = 8, the following code

advertisement = opening[1].text.split('(')[1].split(')')[0]

(Line 21)
will give error.

Error:
list index out of range
But I used a if loop and used continue statement (Line 10) and technically it should break from the for loop and should not execute the part outside the if statement for i = 8. Why am I getting the error? And how to solve it?
