Introduction and Uses
A loop statement allows us to execute a statement or group of
statements multiple times. Given below is the general form of a loop
statement in most of the programming languages 
Example:
If you want to print a series of number, you can do it manually too. But
if the series is very big like all the even numbers upto 1000, you might
want to use loops for your help.
For Loop
A For loop is a repetition control structure that allows you to efficiently
write a loop that needs to execute a specific number of times. It is the
simplest Looping statement in C.
Syntax:
for ( Initialization exp.; Test exp.; Update exp.)
{
statement(s);
}
Initialization

Test
Condition

If true If False

Body

Update

Exit
While Loop
A While loop in C programming repeatedly executes a target statement
as long as a given condition is true. Its similar to For loop, just the exp.
(s) are written in different lines.
Syntax:
while( condition );
{
statement(s);
}
Initialization

Test
Condition

If true If False

Body of the
loop and
update exp.

Exit
D0-While loop
Unlike For and while loops, which test the loop condition at the top of
the loop, the do...while loop in C programming checks its condition at
the bottom of the loop.
A Do...while loop is similar to a while loop, except the fact that it is
guaranteed to execute at least one time.
Syntax:
do {
statement(s);
} while( condition );
 Initialization

loop and
update exp.

Let’s See Some
Programs
 Program to print series
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
clrscr(); 1/1 - 2/4 + 3/9 - 4/16 +
for(int i=1;i<=10;i++)
{ 5/25 - 6/36 + 7/49 - 8/64 +
if(i%2==0)
printf("%d/%d + ",i,i*i);
else
9/81 - 10/100 +
printf("%d/%d - ",i,i*i);
}
getch();
}
Void main()
{

int num=1001;
rem= 1001%10=1 rem= 100%10=0
int dec=0,rem,base=1;
printf("Enter bcd number:"); dec=0+1*1=1 dec=1+0*2=1
scanf("%d",&num); num= 1001/10=100 num= 100/10=10
while(num>0) base= 1*2=2 base= 2*2=4
{

base=base*2; num=10/10=1 num=1/10=0
} base=4*2=8 base=8*2=16
printf(“%d”,dec);
getch();
} dec= 9
