Loop In C Language

Loop In C Language  A loop statement allows us to execute a statement or group of statements multiple times. Given below is the general form of a loop statement in most of the programming languages − C programming language provides the following types of loops to handle looping requirements. Sr.No. Loop Type & Description 1 while loop Repeats a statement or group of statements while a given condition is true. It tests the condition before executing the loop body. 2 for loop Executes a sequence of statements multiple times and abbreviates the code that manages the loop variable. 3 do...while loop It is more like a while statement, except that it tests the condition at the end of the loop body. 4 nested loops You can use one or more loops inside any other while, for, or do..while loop. While Loop in C A while loop is the most straightforward looping structure. While loop syntax in C programming language is as follows: Syntax of While Loop in C: while (condition) { st...

Data Types in C

 Data Type in C Programming Type of data is know as Data type. int,float,char are example of data type in c There are two types 1. Primary data type 2. Derived data type. Primary data types Integer(int),floating(float),character(char),void are the primary data type Derived data types  arrays, functions, structures and pointers are Derived data types. Integer type Integers are used to store whole numbers. Floating type Floating types are used to store real numbers. Character type Character types are used to store characters value. void type void type means no value. This is usually used to specify the type of functions.

Loops in C programming with example

Loops in C programming with example A loop is used for executing a block of statements repeatedly until a given condition returns false. Example of For loop #include <stdio.h> int main () { int i ; for ( i = 1 ; i <= 3 ; i ++) { printf ( "%d\n" , i ); } return 0 ; } Output: 1 2 3 Nested For Loop in C Nesting of loop is also possible. Lets take an example to understand this: #include <stdio.h> int main () { for ( int i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i ++) { for ( int j = 0 ; j < 4 ; j ++) { printf ( "%d, %d\n" , i , j ); } } return 0 ; } Output: 0 , 0 0 , 1 0 , 2 0 , 3 1 , 0 1 , 1 1 , 2 1 , 3 Example of while loop #include <stdio.h> int main () { int count = 1 ; while ( count <= 4 ) { printf ( "%d " , count ); count ++; } return 0 ; } Output: 1 2 3 4 Example of while loop using logical operator In this example...
