Count-Controlled Loops: Exercises

The document describes 7 exercises involving count-controlled loops in programming. 1. Write programs to count from 1 to a given number, count down from a given number to 1, and count by a given interval between numbers. 2. Write programs to input 10 numbers, find the largest number, and find the smallest number. 3. Write a program to repeatedly prompt for a number between 1 and 5 until a valid number is entered. 4. Write a program to count from a given starting number to a given ending number.

Exercises

Count-controlled loops

1. Write a program to take as input a positive integer. The program is to output integers counting from 1 to the number input. For
example, an input of 5 will output: 1 2 3 4 5
2. Amend your program from (1) to count down from the number input to 1. For example, an input of 5 will output: 5 4 3 2 1
3. Amend your program from (1) to take as input a second integer to be used as counting interval. For example, the input of 20, 4
will output: 1 5 9 13 17
4. Write a program to take as input ten numbers and output the largest number.
5. Amend your program from (5) to output the smallest number.

Pre-condition and post-condition loops

6. Write a program that asks the user for an integer between 1 and 5 (inclusive). The program is to check that the input is within
the range and if not, prompt the user for a valid integer until the input is within the range.
7. Write a program to take as input two positive integers. The program is to output integers counting from the first integer to the
second integer. For example, the input 3, 7 will output: 3 4 5 6 7
