All rights reserved. 5-2 Introduction to Repetition Structures A repetition structure causes a statement or set of statements to execute repeatedly Allow a programmer to avoid duplicate code –Duplicate code makes a program large –Write a long sequence of statements is time consuming –If part of the duplicate code has to be corrected or changed, then the change has to be done many times

All rights reserved. 5-3 Condition-Controlled Loops While Loop –While a condition is true, do some task Do-While Loop –Do some task, while condition is true Do-Until Loop –Do some task, while a condition is false (or until its true) With all loops, be careful not to create infinite loops – always provide a way to break out

All rights reserved. 5-8 Count-Controlled Loops A count-controlled loop iterates a specific number of times A for loop is best used for this situation For counterVariable = startingValue to maxValue statement End for There is an Initialization, Test, and Increment expression that controls the loop

1-10 © 2010 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved Count-Controlled Loops General loop concerns Do not forget to initialize the loop control variable Do not forget to modify the loop control variable Many loops are interchangeable, but generally –Use while loop when loop may not have to process –Use do while when it must process at least once –Use for loop with specific number of iterations

1-12 © 2010 Pearson Addison-Wesley. All rights reserved Sentinels A sentinel is a special value that marks the end of a list of values, used as stop values for loops How it can be done –Ask the user at the end of each loop iteration, if there is another value to process –Ask the user at the beginning of the loop, how many times the loop should process
