Loop

• Repetition of action is one reason we rely on computers.

• When there are large amount of data, it is very convenient to
have a control mechanism that repeatedly execute specific
statements.
• In programming, a loop is used to repeat a block of code
until the specified condition is met.
• C programming has three types of loops:
for loop
while loop
do...while loop
