Loops

The document discusses different types of loops in programming including while, for, and do-while loops. It provides examples of the general syntax for each loop type and how they are used to repeatedly execute blocks of code. Specific features covered include initializing and updating loop counters, testing loop conditions, nesting loops, and using break and continue statements. The document concludes with programming assignments involving loops to calculate factorials, find Armstrong numbers, count positive/negative/zero numbers, convert integers to octal, and print number patterns.

Loops

Loops
• Loops are used to perform a set of instructions
repeatedly.

• Types of loops
1. for
2. while
3. do-while
The while Loops
• We use while loop when we want to do
something a fixed number of times.
• General form of while loop
initialize loop counter
while(test loop counter using a condition)
{
do this;
and this;
increment loop counter;
}
The whileLoops…
• The statements within the while loop would
keep on getting executed till the condition
being tested remains true.
• In place of the condition there can be any other
valid expression.
• The condition being tested may use relational
or logical operators as shown in the following
examples.
while(i<=10)
while(i>=10 && j<=15)
while(j> 10 && (b<15 || c<20))
The while Loops…
• The statement within the loop may be a
single line or a block of statements.
• Infinite or indefinite loop.
• Instead of incrementing a loop counter, we
can even decrement it.
• It is not necessary that a loop counter must
only, be an int. It can even be a float.
• More operators
i++, ++i, i+=1
The for Loop
• The for allows us to specify three things about a
loop in a single line:
1. Setting a loop counter to an initial value.
2. Testing the loop counter to determine whether its value has
reached the number of repetitions desired.
3. Increasing the value of loop counter each time the program
segment within the loop has been executed.
• General form of for loop
for( initialize counter; test counter; increment counter)
{
do this ;
and this;
and this;
}
The forLoop
• for(i=10; i ;i--)
printf(“%d”,i);

• for(i=1;i<=10;printf(“%d”,i++))
;

• for( scanf(“%d”,&i); i<=10 ; i++)


printf(“%d”,i);
The forLoop
• for(i=1; i<10 ; )
{ printf(“%d”,i);
i++; }
• int i=1;
for( ;i<=10;i++)
printf(“%d”,i);

• int i=1;
for( ;i<=10;)
{ printf(“%d”,i);
i=i+1; }
The for Loop
• Nesting of loops.
• Multiple initializations in the for loop.
for(i=1,j=1;i<10;i++)
• Multiple condition in the for loop.
for(i=1;i<10 && j<10;i++)
The do – while Loop
• General form
do
{
statements;
----
----
} while(condition);
• The break; statement.
• The continue; statement.
• Difference between while and do-while.
