Loops in C Programming
Understanding Iteration Structures
Introduction to Loops • - Loops are used to execute a block of code repeatedly. • - They reduce code redundancy and improve efficiency. • - Types of loops in C: • 1. For Loop • 2. While Loop • 3. Do-While Loop For Loop • - Used when the number of iterations is known beforehand. • - Syntax: • for(initialization; condition; increment/decrement) { • // Code to be executed • } • - Example: • for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) { While Loop • - Used when the number of iterations is not known beforehand. • - Syntax: • while(condition) { • // Code to be executed • } • - Example: • int i = 0; • while(i < 5) { Do-While Loop • - Similar to the while loop but guarantees at least one execution. • - Syntax: • do { • // Code to be executed • } while(condition); • - Example: • int i = 0; • do { Differences Between Loops • - **For Loop:** Best for fixed iterations. • - **While Loop:** Best for conditional iterations. • - **Do-While Loop:** Ensures execution before condition check. • - Choose based on the requirement of your program. Conclusion • - Loops are essential for iteration in C programming. • - Understand the use case for each type of loop. • - Practice writing and debugging loops for better understanding. • - Optimize loops for performance in larger programs.
