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
We will learn about for loop in this tutorial. In the next tutorial, we will learn about while and do...while loop.
In C, there are three types of loops that you can use to repeat a block of code multiple times:
for loop: The for loop is a versatile loop that allows you to specify an initialization, a condition for continuation, and an update expression, all within a single line of code.
while loop: The while loop repeatedly executes a block of code as long as a specified condition remains true.
do-while loop: The do-while loop is similar to the while loop but with a slight difference. It executes the code block first and then checks the condition. If the condition is true, it continues to execute the loop.
These loop constructs provide different ways to control the flow of execution and repeat a block of code until a certain condition is met. You can choose the loop type that best suits your specific requirements.
The looping can be defined as repeating the same process multiple times until a specific condition satisfies. It is known as iteration also.
