The document explains three types of loops in programming: while loops, do-while loops, and for loops. Each loop is described with its syntax and functionality, highlighting how they repeat statements based on certain conditions. Examples in C++ demonstrate the usage of each loop type for countdown and input scenarios.

Loops are used to repeat a
statement a certain number of times or while a condition is fulfilled. z
The while loop
Its format is: while (condition) statement z
and its functionality is simply to repeat
statement while the condition set in expression is true. #include z <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int n; cout << "Enter the starting number : "; cin >> n; while z(n>0) { cout << n << ", "; --n; } cout << “HAPPY NEW YEAR!"; return 0; } z
The do - while loop
Its format is: do statement while (condition); Its functionality is exactly the same as z
the while loop, except that condition in
the do-while loop is evaluated after the execution of statement instead of before, granting at least one execution of statement even if condition is never fulfilled. z include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int n; do { cout << "Enter a number: "; z
cin >> n; } while (n != 0); return 0; } z
The for loop
Its format is: for (initialization; condition; increase) statement; z
It’s main function is to repeat the
statement while the condition remains true, like the while loop. But in addition, the for loop provides specific locations to contain an initialization statement and an increase statement. #include z <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { for (int n=10; n>0; n--) { cout << n << ", "; } cout << “Happy New Year!"; return 0;
