C++ Loops (For, While and Do while)

                                                  The for statement

The C++ for statement has the following form:

Syntax:

for  (expression1;Condition;expression2)
	statement;

for  (expression1;Condition;expression2) {
	block of statements
}

expression1 initialises; expression2 is the terminate test; expression3 is the modifier (which may be more than just simple increment);
NOTE: C/C++ basically treats for statements as while type loops

For loop example program:

/*  Example Program For for Loop In C++ Programming Language          */

// Header Files
#include<iostream> 
using namespace std;

//Main Function
int main()
{
     // Variable Declaration
    int x=3;

     //for loop
	for (x=3;x>0;x--)
	{
		cout<<"x="<<x<<endl;
	}
     //Main Function return Statement
     return 0;
}

Output:

x=3
x=2
x=1

                                   The while statement

The while statement is similar to those used in other languages although more can be done with the expression statement -- a standard feature of C.
The while has the form:

Syntax:

while (expression)
	statement;

while (expression)
	block of statements
}
Image result for c++ loops

While statement example program

/*  Example Program For while Loop In C++ Programming Language */

// Header Files
#include<iostream> 
using namespace std;

//Main Function
int main()
{
     // Variable Declaration
    int x=3;

     //while loop
	while (x>0)
	{
		cout<<"x="<<x<<endl;
		x--;
	}
 //Main Function return Statement
     return 0;
}

Output:

x=3
x=2
x=1

                          The do-while statement

Syntax:

C's do-while statement has the form:
do {
   statement;
}while (expression);
Image result for c++ loops
It is similar to PASCAL's repeat ... until except do while expression is true.

do while Loop example:

/*  Example Program For Do While Loop In C++ Programming Language */

// Header Files
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

//Main Function
int main()
{
     // Variable Declaration
    int x=3;

     //do while loop
  	 do {
	   cout<<"x="<<x<<endl;
	   x--;
	 }while (x>0);
     //Main Function return Statement
     return 0;
}

outputs:

x=3
x=2
x=1
NOTE: The postfix x- operator which uses the current value of x while printing and then decrements x.

Introduction To C++

       Lets learn The C++ Programming Language C++ ranks 4th in popularity according to 2016 IEEE spectrum Top Programming Language ranking. Learning C++ is a wise investment for all programmers.                    What is C++? “C++ is a statically-typed, free-form, (usually) compiled, multi-paradigm, intermediate-level general-purpose middle-level programming language.” In simple terms, C++ is a sophisticated, efficient and a general-purpose programming language based on C. It was developed by Bjarne Srroutrup in 1979. Many of today’s operating systems, system drivers, browsers and games use C++ as their core language. This makes C++ one of the most popular languages today. Since it is an enhanced/extended version of C programming language, C and C++ are often denoted together as C/C++.                             ...

Java Basic Principles

This Blog is Specially Designed for those who can learn the theory concepts of Java (Object Oriented Language)                                                             Object Oriented programming is a programming style which is associated with the concepts like class, object, Inheritance, Encapsulation, Abstraction, Polymorphism. Most popular programming languages like Java, C++, C#, Ruby, etc. follow an object oriented programming paradigm.  As JAVA  being  the most sought-after skill, we will talk about object-oriented programming concepts in Java.   An object-based application in Java is based on declaring classes, creating objects from them and interacting between these objects.  In this blog,  we will understand the below  core concepts of  Object oriented Programming in the ...

C++ Operators

                                                               Operators Once introduced to variables and constants, we can begin to operate with them by using operators. What follows is a complete list of operators. At this point, it is likely not necessary to know all of them, but they are all listed here to also serve as reference. Assignment operator (=) The assignment operator assigns a value to a variable.   x = 5; This statement assigns the integer value  5  to the variable  x . The assignment operation always takes place from right to left, and never the other way around:   x = y; This statement assigns to variable  x  the value contained in variable  y . The value of  x  at the moment this statement is executed is lost and replaced by the value of...
