While Loop

http://www.nielit.gov.in/gorakhpur /GKP.NIELIT @GKP_NIELIT /NIELITIndia /school/NIELITIndia

Example of While Loop
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
main()
{
False int i=1;
clrscr();
True while(i<=10)
{
printf("\n%d",i);
i++;
}
getch();
}

For Loop

http://www.nielit.gov.in/gorakhpur /GKP.NIELIT @GKP_NIELIT /NIELITIndia /school/NIELITIndia

Example of for Loop
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
main()
False {
int i;
True clrscr();
for(i=1;i<=10;i++)
printf("\n%d",i);
getch();
}

Do while Loop

http://www.nielit.gov.in/gorakhpur /GKP.NIELIT @GKP_NIELIT /NIELITIndia /school/NIELITIndia

Example of do while Loop
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int digit = 0;
do
{
printf(“%d”, digit++);
}while(digit<=9);
}

Break Statement
 Sometimes, it is necessary to exit immediately from a loop as soon as
the condition is satisfied.
 When break statement is used inside a loop, then it can cause to
terminate from a loop.
 The statements after break statement are skipped.

http://www.nielit.gov.in/gorakhpur /GKP.NIELIT @GKP_NIELIT /NIELITIndia /school/NIELITIndia

Example of break statement
#include <stdio.h>
main ()
{
int a = 10;
while( a < 20 )
{
printf("value of a: %d\n", a);
a++;
if( a > 15)
break;
}
}
http://www.nielit.gov.in/gorakhpur /GKP.NIELIT @GKP_NIELIT /NIELITIndia /school/NIELITIndia
Continue Statement
 Sometimes, it is required to skip a part of a body of loop under specific
conditions.
 So, C supports 'continue' statement to overcome this problem.
 The working structure of 'continue' is similar as that of that break
statement but difference is that it cannot terminate the loop.
 Continue statement simply skips statements and continues next iteration.

Example of Continue statment
#include <stdio.h>
main ()
{
int a = 10;
do
{
if( a == 15)
{
a = a + 1;
continue;
}
printf("value of a: %d\n", a);
a++;
} while( a < 20 );
