Computer Programming in Fortran 77: Lecture 5 - Repetition (WHILE LOOP)

The program prints the values TRUE and FALSE. The function PRIME determines if a number is prime by checking if it is divisible by any numbers from 2 to half its value. It returns TRUE if no divisors are found, FALSE otherwise. For the inputs 5 and 8, it correctly determines that 5 is prime but 8 is not.

Lecture 5 Repetition (WHILE LOOP)


The WHILE LOOP Structure
DO WHILE ( condition )

block of statements

END DO
Examples on The While Loop
Example 1: Write a FORTRAN program that reads the grades of
100 students in a course. The program then computes and prints
the average of the grades.

Solution:

REAL GRADE, SUM, AVG


INTEGER K
K=0
SUM = 0.0
DO WHILE (K .LT. 100)
K=K+1
PRINT*, ENTER GRADE NUMBER , K
READ*, GRADE
SUM = SUM + GRADE
END DO
AVG = SUM / K
PRINT*, AVERAGE = , AVG
END
Example 2:

A class has a certain number of students


Read the grades of students, the last input would include a negative grade
Compute and print the average, the number of students in the class

Solution:

REAL GRADE , SUM, AVG


INTEGER NUM
SUM = 0.0
NUM = 0
PRINT*, ENTER A GRADE
READ*, GRADE
DO WHILE (GRADE .GE. 0)
NUM = NUM + 1
SUM = SUM + GRADE
PRINT*, ENTER A GRADE
READ*, GRADE
END DO
AVG = SUM / NUM
PRINT*, AVERAGE = , AVG
PRINT*, NUMBER OF STUDENTS IN THE CLASS = , NUM
END
Example 3: Series Summation using a DO loop:
Question: Write a FORTRAN program which calculates the sum of the
following series :
1/2 + 2/3 + 3/4 + 4/5 + + 99/100

Solution:

REAL N, SUM
SUM = 0
DO 100 N = 1 , 99
SUM = SUM + N / (N + 1)
100 CONTINUE
PRINT*, SUM = , SUM
END
Example 4: Series Summation using a WHILE loop:
Question: Write a FORTRAN program which calculates
the sum of the following series :

1/2 + 2/3 + 3/4 + 4/5 + + 99/100

Solution:

REAL N, SUM
N=1
SUM = 0
DO WHILE(N .LE. 99)
SUM = SUM + N / (N + 1)
N=N+1
END DO
PRINT*, SUM = , SUM
END
Example 5: Write a FORTRAN program that reads an integer
number M . The program Then computes and prints the
factorial of M using a DO loop.
Solution:

INTEGER M ,TERM , FACT


PRINT*, ENTER AN INTEGER NUMBER'
READ*, M
PRINT*, INPUT: , M
IF (M .GE. 0) THEN
FACT = 1
DO 100 TERM = M , 2 , -1
FACT = FACT *TERM
100 CONTINUE
PRINT*, FACTORIAL OF , M , IS, FACT
ELSE
PRINT*, NO FACTORIAL FOR NEGATIVES
ENDIF
END
Example 6: Write a FORTRAN program that reads an integer number
M. The program Then computes and prints the factorial of M using
a WHILE loop.

Solution:

INTEGER M , FACT
PRINT*, ENTER AN INTEGER NUMBER'
READ*, M
PRINT*, INPUT: ', M
IF (M .GE. 0) THEN
FACT = 1
DO WHILE (M .GT. 1)
FACT = FACT *M
M=M-1
END DO
PRINT*, FACTORIAL IS ', FACT
ELSE
PRINT*, NO FACTORIAL FOR NEGATIVES'
ENDIF
END
Example 7: Alternating Sequences/ Series: Alternating sequences, or series,
are those which have terms alternating their signs from positive to negative.
In this example, we find the sum of an alternating series.

Question: Write a FORTRAN program that evaluates the following series to


the 100th term.

1 - 3 + 5 - 7 + 9 - 11 + 13 - 15 + 17 - 19 + ...

Solution:

It is obvious that the terms differ by 2 and start at the value of 1.

INTEGER SUM , TERM , N


SUM = 0
TERM = 1
DO 10 N = 1, 100
SUM = SUM + (-1) ** (N + 1) * TERM
TERM = TERM + 2
10 CONTINUE
PRINT*, SUM = , SUM
END
Nested WHILE Loops
Example: Consider the following program.

INTEGER M , J
INTEGER M, J
M=1
DO 111 M = 1 , 2
DO WHILE ( M .LE. 2)
DO 122 J = 1 , 6 , 2
J=1
PRINT*, M , J
DO WHILE (J .LE. 6)
122 CONTINUE
PRINT*, M, J
111 CONTINUE
J=J+2
END
END DO
M=M+1
END DO
The output of the above program is:
END
1 1
1 3
1 5
2 1
2 3
2 5
Infinite Loop
INTEGER X
X=5
DO WHILE ( X .GT. 0)
PRINT*, X
X=X+1
END DO
END
Implied Loop
Implied loops are only used in READ and PRINT statements.

READ*, (list of variables, index = initial, limit, increment)


PRINT*, (list of expressions, index = initial, limit, increment)

Example 1: Printing values from 100 to 87: The following segment prints the
integer values from 100 down to 87 in a single line.

PRINT*, (K , K = 100 , 87 , -1)

Output:

100 99 98 97 96 95 94 93 92 91 90 89 88 87
Exercise
PRINT*, ((K , M , M = 1 , 4 , 2) , K , M , K = 2 , 3) , K , M

PRINT*, ((K , M , M = 1 , 4 , -2) , K , M , K = 2 , 3) , K , M

PRINT*, ((K , M , M = 1 , 4 , 2) , K , M , K = 2 , 3 , -1) , K , M


Repetition Constructs in Subprograms
Exercise

What will be printed by the following program?

C FUNCTION SUBPROGRAM
LOGICAL FUNCTION PRIME(K)
INTEGER N, K
PRIME = . TRUE .
DO 10 N = 2, K / 2
IF (MOD(K , N) .EQ. 0) THEN
PRIME = . FALSE .
RETURN
ENDIF
10 CONTINUE
RETURN
END

C MAIN PROGRAM
