C++ Programming: Academic Year 2018-2019 Lecturer Zanco A. Taha (MSC.)

The document outlines different iteration structures like for, while, and do-while loops used in C++ programming and provides examples of how to use each loop type. It also discusses the break and continue statements that can be used to control the flow of loops by skipping iterations or exiting the loop early. As homework, students are asked to write programs using for and while loops to print even numbers from 1 to 100, find the sum of odd numbers from 1 to 50, and check if a number is prime.

Iteration structures: loops
Loops have as purpose to repeat a statement a certain number of
times or while a condition is fulfilled

• For loop
• While loop
• Do while loop
The For Loop
for (initialization; condition; increase)
statement;

It works in the following way:


1. initialization is executed. Generally it is an initial value setting for
a counter variable. This is executed
only once.
2. condition is checked. If it is true the loop continues, otherwise the
loop ends and statement is skipped
(not executed).
3. statement is executed. As usual, it can be either a single statement
or a block enclosed in braces { }.
4. finally, whatever is specified in the increase field is executed and
the loop gets back to step 2.
The For Loop-Example

// countdown using a for loop


#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
for (int n=10; n>0; n--) {
cout << n << ", ";
}
return 0;
}
The While Loop
while (expression)
statement;
// custom countdown using while
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
int n;
cout << "Enter the starting number > ";
cin >> n;
while (n>0) {
cout << n << ", ";
--n;
}
Return 0;}
The Do-While Loop
do {
statement;
}while (expression) ;

// number echoer
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
unsigned long n;
do {
cout << "Enter number (0 to end): ";
cin >> n;
cout << "You entered: " << n << "\n";
} while (n != 0);
return 0;
}
The break statement
Using break we can leave a loop even if the condition for its end is not
fulfilled. It can be used to end an infinite loop, or to force it to end before its
natural end.
// break loop example
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
int n;
for (n=10; n>0; n--)
{
cout << n << ", ";
if (n==3)
{
cout << "countdown aborted!";
break;
}
}
return 0;}
The Continue statement
The continue statement causes the program to skip the rest of the loop in the
current iteration as if the end of the statement block had been reached,
causing it to jump to the start of the following iteration.
// continue loop example
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
for (int n=10; n>0; n--)
{
if (n==5) continue;
cout << n << ", ";
}
cout << "FIRE!\n";
return 0;
}
Homework

Use both for and while loop to solve the following problems:
1-Write a program to print all even numbers between 1 and 100.
2-Write a program to find sum of odd numbers between 1 and 50.
3-Write a program to input a number and then check the number is
prime or not.
