Lab 06 -Nested For Loop, While Loop

Lab Outcomes:
 Understand Nested Loop Concepts: Gain a solid understanding of how nested loops
operate, including how the outer and inner loops interact to produce patterns or iterate
through multidimensional data.
 Pattern-Based Problems: Practice creating various patterns (e.g., triangles, squares,
pyramids) using nested loops, developing logic and control over loop iterations.

Definition of for Loop in C++?
A for loop is a control structure that allows you to repeat a block of code a specific number of
times. It is often used when you know in advance how many times you want to execute a
particular task.

Why Do We Use for Loop?


We use for loop to automate repetitive tasks in a program. It helps to avoid writing the same
code multiple times, making the code shorter and easier to read. By using a loop, we can execute
a task as many times as we need without manually repeating the code.

Problems Solved by for Loop:


The for loop solves the problem of repetition in programming. For example, if you want to print
numbers from 1 to 10, instead of writing a print statement ten times, you can use a for loop that
repeats the printing process for each number.

Example:
Imagine you are a student helping to arrange chairs for a classroom. You have 10 chairs and you
need to put them in a straight line. Instead of picking up one chair, placing it, then repeating the
same for each chair, you decide to automate your actions:

1. Initialization: Start with chair 1.


2. Condition: As long as the number of chairs is less than or equal to 10.
3. Increment: Move to the next chair each time.
Code:

Display a text 5 times


for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
cout << "Placing chair " << i << endl;
}
In computer programming, loops are used to repeat a block of code.
For example, let's say we want to show a message 100 times. Then instead of writing the print
statement 100 times, we can use a loop.
There are 3 types of loops in C++.
1. For Loop
2. While Loop
3. Do while

Nested Loop:
A nested for loop is a loop inside another loop. You use this structure when you need to perform
repetitive tasks within another repetitive task.

Problem Solved by Nested Loops:


Nested loops are helpful when working with multi-dimensional data, like a table or a grid.
They allow us to process or manipulate data that has rows and columns or any structure with
multiple layers.
For example:
 Tables: Processing data in rows and columns, like a table of students’ scores.

Syntax for Nested For loop:


for ( initialization; condition; increment ) {

for ( initialization; condition; increment ) {

// statement of inside loop


}

// statement of outer loop


}
Example Code 1.1:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
// Outer loop
int main(){
for (int i = 1; i <= 2; i++) {
cout << "Outer: " << i << "\n"; // Executes 2 times

// Inner loop
for (int j = 1; j <= 3; j++) {
cout << " Inner: " << j << "\n"; // Executes 6 times (2 * 3)
}
}
return 0;
}
Output:

Example Code 1.2:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
// Outer loop
int main(){
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
// Inner loop
for (int j = 1; j <= 5; j++) {
cout << "#"; // Executes 25 times (5 * 5)
}
cout<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

Output:
Example Code 1.3:

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int i=5;
int j;
for(i;i>=1;i--){
for(j=1;j<=i;j++){
cout<<"*";
}
cout<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

Output:

While Loop:
Loops can execute a block of code as long as a specified condition is reached.
Loops are handy because they save time, reduce errors, and they make code more readable.
Another Definition
A while loop is a way to repeat a set of instructions as long as a specific condition is true.
Syntax:
while (condition) {
// code block to be executed
}

How it works:
1. The loop starts by checking a condition.
2. If the condition is true, the code inside the loop runs.
3. After running, it goes back and checks the condition again.
4. This keeps going in a "loop" until the condition is no longer true, at which point it stops.
For example: If you're stacking books until you reach a height of 10 books, you'd keep adding a
book, then check, “Is it 10 yet?” If not, you add another. Once you reach 10, you stop. This is
how a while loop works!
Example Code:
int i = 1;
while (i <= 5) {
cout << i <<endl;
i++;
}

Example Code for nested while loop:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int i = 1; // Initialize the outer loop variable
while (i <= 2) { // Outer loop condition
cout << "Outer: " << i << endl; // Executes 2 times

int j = 1; // Initialize the inner loop variable


while (j <= 3) { // Inner loop condition
cout << " Inner: " << j << endl; // Executes 6 times (2 * 3)
j++; // Increment inner loop variable
}

i++; // Increment outer loop variable


}
return 0;
}

Lab Task
Note: Implement Each Task using nested loop and nested while loop.
Problem Statement:
Task 1: Write a C++ program that will print the following pattern.
*
**
***
****
*****
******
*******
Task 2: Write a program to print a pyramid pattern with numbers where each row has
incrementally increasing numbers.
1
12
123
1234
12345
Task 3: Write a program in C++ to print a pattern based on a user-input number of rows. The
pattern should display increasing rows where each row i contains the integer i repeated i times.

Output:

Task 4: Create a program that outputs the days for a specified number of weeks. This will help you
practice using nested loops in C++ and improve your understanding of iteration and output formatting.

Requirements:

1. Define the Number of Weeks:


o You should set the number of weeks to display to 3.
2. Display Days in Each Week:
o Each week should display 7 days.
o Each day should be numbered from 1 to 7.
3. Output Format:
o The output should clearly indicate the week number followed by each day in that
week, with proper indentation for readability.

Task 5: Let’s consider a seating arrangement in a theater. Imagine a theater with multiple rows of
seats, where each row has several seats numbered from left to right. If we want to display the seat
numbers in each row.
There are 5 rows and each row has 10 seats. A nested loop can help us print each seat's number in each
row.
