Iteration(looping) statements:


Iteration: means repeating. Repeats a block of statements for certain number of times. 

 
Types of Loops in java.

1. while 2. do-while 3. for 4. for-in
 
 


1. while-statement.

 
 
 
syn:
 
while(condition)
{
..............;
..............;
}
 
Logic: 
 
ex: int i=0;
 
 
while(i<=10)
{
    System.out.println(i);
    i++;
}
 

It checks i value with the condition

if i is less than 10 then it enters inside the while and executes print-statement and increments the i value.

Again it goes to condition and checks the incremented value(now i=2) with condition. Now

2 is <10..?

Yes, so again enters inside the while prints the i, and increments i value. This will continue up to i is ≤ 10.

When i becomes 11, the condition becomes false and comes out of the loop.

ex: 
 

Print Natural Numbers using while loop.

 
public class Nat
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int i=1;
    while(i<=10)
    {
        System.out.println(i);
        i++;
    }
}
}

Program to print odd numbers:


ex: 1,3,5,7,9 etc.
Logic: 
 
1) initialize i to 1.
2) print i.
3) increment i by 2.


Print odd-nos

 
public class Oddnumbers
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int i=1;
    while(i<=10)
    {
        System.out.println(i);
        i=i+2;
    }
}
}

Program to print even numbers:

ex: 
print 0,2,4,8,10
 
Logic:
 
1) initialize i to 0.
2) print i.
3) increment i by 2.

Printing Even numbers:


class Evennumbers
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int i=0;
    while(i<=10)
    {
    System.out.println(i);
    i=i+2;
    }
}
}

Summary of while

1.printing 10 natural numbers
2.printing odd numbers.
3 printing even numbers.
 

Try out: 

Printing 10 natural no. in Reverse Order.

1) i=10 //initial value
2) i>=1 //condition
3) i-- //decrementing


Factorial of given number.

n=5
1*2*3*4*5=120
n=5
f=1
n>=0
f=f*(n-1);
n--
print f.


Sum of the digits of a given number.

logic:  
 
1+2+3=6
sum=0;
n=123
r=n%10
sum=sum+r;

print sum;

 

Printing of Mathematical Table using while

expression:
n=5
i=1
while(i<10)
{
System.out.println( n + "*" + i + "=" + (n*i) );
i++;
} 
o/p:
-----
1*1=1
1*2=2
1*3=3
.
.
1*10=10

Nested while: while inside another while is called nested while

 
while(condition)
{
while(condition)
{
.......
.......
}
}

Write a program to the following output:

1
2 1st iteration
3
---
1
2 2nd iteration
3
---
1
2 3rd iteration
3
 
 
example:
 
import java.io.*;
public class Matrix
{
public static void main(String args[]{
int j;
int i=1;
while(i<=3)
{
j=1;
while(j<=3)
{
System.out.println(j);
j++;
}
System.out.println("-------");
i++;
}
}
}

Print 1-3 mathematical tables:


replace print j stmt as below..
System.out.println(i+"*"+j+"="+(i*j));
 

2. do..while-statement.

syn:
 
do{
...........;
...........;
}
while(condition);
 
ex:
class Do_whileDemo
{
public static void main(String args[]){
int i=1;
do{
System.out.println(i);
i++;
}
while(i<=10);
}
} 
 

Difference between while--do-while in Java

 
  • In while 1st condition checks, then executes the block
  • do while 1st executes the block, and then checks the condition
  • do-while at least once it is executed before checking the condition

3. for - Loop.

 
  • For Loop
  • Nested for
  • Break and Continue 
 
 
 

For loop contains 3 parts in it. each part is separater with semi colon';'.


1. initialization
2. condition
3. incrementation
 
 
syn: for(initilization; condition; incrementation)
{
..............;
..............;
}
 
ex:
for(int i=0; i<=10; i++)
{
    System.out.println(i);
} 

 

break and continue in Java:

breaks ---> breaks the loop if the given condition is true.
continue--> continue skips the current iteration in a loop.

 

break code example:

 
class Breakingloop
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int k;
int n = 20;
int sum = 0;
for(k=n; k>=1; k--)
{
    if(k==10)
    break;
    System.out.println(k);
    sum = sum + k;
}
System.out.println("sum=" + sum);
}
}

continue code example:

 
public class Continueinloop
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int k;
    int n = 10
    int sum=0;
for(k=n;k>=1;k--)
{
    if(k==5)
    continue;
    System.out.println(k);
    sum=sum+k;
}
    System.out.println("sum=" + sum);
}}

 Nested for

One forloop inside, another forloop

syn: 
 
for(initilization;condition;incrementation)
{
for(initilization;condition;incrementation)
{
..............;
..............;
}
}
 EX1:
for(i=1;i<=3;i++)
{
for(j=1;j<=3;j++)
{
System.out.println(j);
}
}
 
ex2:
 
public class Nestedfor
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int i,j,k;
    k=1;
for(i=1;i<=3;i++)
{
    for(j=1;j<=3;j++)
    {
        System.out.print(k++);
    }
    System.out.println();
}
}
}
---------------------------------------------------------
 
Print the following matrix(3/3) using nested for. 
100
010
001
 
Logic:
 
int i,j;
 
for(i=1;i<=3;i++)
{
    for(j=1;j<=3;j++)
    {
    if(i!=j)
        System.out.print(0);
    else
        System.out.print(1);
    }
    System.out.println();
}
------------------------------------------------------------
 
 
import java.lang.io;
 
class Loopfor
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
int k;
int n=Integer.parseInt(args[0]);
int sum=0;
for(k=n;k>=1;k--)
{
if((k%2)!=0)
{
System.out.println(k);
sum=sum+k;
}
}
System.out.println("sum="+sum);
}
}
 

Different ways of for..loop

 
syn2:
 
i=0;
for(;i<10;i++)
{
...........;
...........;
}
---------------
 
syn3:
 
i=0
for(;i<10;)
{
....;
....;
i++;
}
---------------
syn4:  
 
for(; ;) this goes to infinite loop.

4. for..in

 
syn:
 
for(itr-var : collection)
 
ex:
 
for(int i:n)
{
    .....;
    .....;
}
---> n is array collection
---> i is iterating variable
 
for each:
 
public class Foreach{
 
public static void main(String args[])
{
    int names[] = {"anna","jenny","sofie","lisa","rossy"};
    for(int i : names)
    {
        System.out.println(i);
    }
}
}
