    The document discusses loops in MATLAB, including the while and for loops. It provides examples of using each loop type, such as displaying values while a condition is true or calculating sums and averages of input values. The while loop repeats a code block until a condition is false, and examples demonstrate getting iterative input and accumulating results. The for loop repeats a code block a specified number of times, and examples show summing ranges of numbers, inputting values in a loop, and nesting loops.

    Lecture (12)
    Loops (While and for)

    Dr. Omar Almutairi


    Outline
    1. Understanding of Loops
    2. Flow Control and Loops in MATLAB
    3. The while loop
    Example
    4. The for loop
    Example
    Understanding of Loops
    Loops: Construct permits user to
    execute a block of instructions more than
    once.
    Flow Control and Loops in MATLAB
    Flow Control:
     if-elseif-else statement
     switch-case-otherwise statement
    Loops:
     The for Loop
     The while Loop
    THE while LOOP

    Structure:
    The Code Block is repeated
    until the expression is false.
    If it is false, the program
    executes the first statement
    after the end.

    5
    THE while LOOP
    Example 1:
    x = input('Enter first value: ');
    while x >= 0
    disp('x')
    end

    The value of x will be continuously displayed even with one input

    6
    THE while LOOP
    Example 2:
    x = input('Enter first value: ');
    while x >= 0
    disp('x')
    x = input('Enter second value: ');
    end
    k=2*x

    The value of x depend on while condition


    7
    THE while LOOP
    Example 3:
    Write a program that calculates the average,

    and the standard deviation,

    for a set of values (X), entered by the user


    8
    Example 3 solution
    % Initialize sums.
    n = 0; sum_x = 0; sum_x2 = 0;
    % Read in first value
    x = input('Enter first value: ');
    while x >= 0
    % Accumulate sums.
    n = n + 1
    sum_x = sum_x + x
    sum_x2 = sum_x2 + x^2
    % Read in next value
    x = input('Enter next value: ');
    end
    % Calculate the mean and standard deviation
    x_bar = sum_x/n
    std_dev=sqrt((n*sum_x2-sum_x^2)/(n*(n-1)))
    The For Loop
    THE for LOOP
    Structure:
    Repeats a block of statements (Body) specified
    number of times.
    Matlab generates an array by
    evaluating this expression
    column by column.

    Legal Examples:

    11
    Example (1): THE for LOOP
    >> Untdditled4
    for x=0:10 0
    n=i;
    1.00
    disp(x)
    end 2.00

    3.00

    4.00

    5.00

    6.00

    7.00

    8.00

    9.00

    10.00
    Example (2): THE for LOOP
    >> Untdditled4
    for x=0:2:10 0
    n=i;
    2.00
    disp(x)
    end 4.00

    6.00

    8.00

    10.00
    Example (3): THE for LOOP
    Write a MATLAB program to define the sum of the
    first 25 number
    sum=0;
    for k=1:25
    sum=sum+k;
    end
    disp('The total number is:')
    disp(sum)

    The total number is:


    325.00
    Example (4): THE for LOOP
    Write a MATLAB program to define the sum of the
    given number
    sum=0
    for k=[1 3 6 7]
    sum=sum+k;
    end
    disp('The total number is:')
    disp(sum)

    The total number is:


    17
    Example (5): THE for LOOP
    a=input('in put a= '); % a=input('in put a=
    ');
    if (a >= 0) for b=1:6
    y=a+1; a=input('in put a= ');
    else
    y=a^2+2; if (a >= 0)
    end y=a+1;
    else
    y=a^2+2;
    end
    disp(y)
    end
    Example (6): THE for LOOP
    a=input('in put a= '); % a=input('in put a=
    ');
    for b=1:6 for b=1:6
    % a=input('in put a= a=input('in put a= ');
    ');
    if (a >= 0) if (a >= 0)
    y=a+1; y=a+1;
    else else
    y=a^2+2; y=a^2+2;
    end end
    disp(y) disp(y)
    end end

    What happened if you run the program in each case?


    Example (7): THE for LOOP
    for b=1:6 for b=1:6
    a=input('in put a= '); a=input('in put a= ');

    if (a >= 0) if (a >= 0)
    y=a+1; y=a+1;
    else else
    y=a^2+2; y=a^2+2;
    end end
    disp(y) End
    end disp(y)

    What happened if you run the program in each case?
