Cs112 - Programming Fundamental: Lecture # 16 - Jumping Statements in C Syed Shahrooz Shamim

This document discusses different types of jumping statements in C programming including break, continue, goto, return, and exit(). It provides examples of how to use break and continue statements to control loops. Break is used to terminate a loop entirely while continue skips the remaining code in the current loop iteration. Goto allows unconditional or conditional transfer of control to another part of the program. Return returns from a function, while exit() terminates the entire process.

Lecture # 16 – Jumping Statements in C

Jumping Statements
• Jumping statements are also known as Loop Control
Statements.
• Jumping statements are of different types
o break
o continue
o goto
o return
o exit ()
Break Statements
• Break statement simply terminates the loop and
takes control out of the loop. Here explained break
statement for for Loop

for(…………….) 8. Print sum of infinite numbers.


#include <stdio.h>
{
void main ()
.. . . . . . . .
{ int a, sum=0;
.. . . . . . . . for( ; ; )
if (condition) { scanf(“%d”, &a);
break; if (a==-999)
.. . . . . . . . break;
.. . . . . . . . sum=sum+a; }
} printf(“The sum is %d”, sum); }
Break Statement for while & do While Loop

while(……..) do
{ {
......... .........
......... .........
if (condition) if (condition)
break; break;
......... .........
......... .........}
} while (…….);
......... .........
......... .........
Continue Statement
• Continue is used for skipping a part of loop for
some condition.
• Continue causes the remaining code inside a loop
block to be skipped and causes execution of jump to
the top of loop block
12 Print 1-10 numbers except 3 and 7
for(…………….)
{ #include <stdio.h>
.. . . . . . . . void main ()
.. . . . . . . . {
if (condition) int i;
continue; for(i=1 ; 1<=10 ; i++)
.. . . . . . . . {
.. . . . . . . . if ((i==3)||(i==7))
} continue;
printf(“ %d\t”, i);
} }
Continue Statement for while & do-while Loops

while(……..) do
{ {
......... .........
......... .........
if (condition) if (condition)
continue;
continue;
.........
.........
.........}
.........
while (…….);
} .........
......... .........
.........
goto statement

• The goto statement is used to alter the


normal sequence of program execution goto label1
by transferring control to some other ..........
part of the program
unconditionally/conditionally. ..........
• In its general form, the goto statement is label2:
written as ..........
• goto label; ..........
• where the label is an identifier that is label1:
used to label the target statement to
which the control is transferred. ..........
label : statement; ..........
• Each labeled statement within the goto label2
function must have a unique label, i.e.,
no two statement can have the same
label.
return statement and exit()
• return is an instruction of the language that returns
from a function call.
• exit is a system call (not a language statement) that
terminates the current process.
