1. Control Structures

2. Control Structures There are three types of loops in java : For loop
While loop
Do while loop
Here is the general form of traditional for loop,
For(initialization; condition; iteration){
//body }

3. Control Structures Loop While loop Do-while loop For loop
Loops in Java are used to execute the same block of code a specified number of times or while a specified condition is true.
While loop
Do-while loop
For loop
Break and Continue

4. Control Structures WhileLoop While loop Syntax:
The while loop is used when one wants the loop to execute and continue executing while the specified condition is true.
Syntax:
While loop
var intilization
while (var<=endvalue) {
code to be executed }

5. Control Structures WhileLoop While loop
The while loop is the most basic loop in Java.
while (boolean-expression) {
statement1;
[...] }
While loop

6. Control Structures WhileLoop While loop
The loop body will continue to execute as long as the looping condition is true.
The looping condition is tested upon entry and when the loop body is completed. If the loop body consists of a single statement, the curly braces are not necessary.
If the looping condition is false upon entry, the loop body will not be executed
While loop

7. Control Structures WhileLoop Example While loop int x = 0;
while(x<10) {
System.out.println(x++); }
While loop

8. Control Structures WhileLoop Example While loop int x = 0;
while(x<10) {
System.out.println(++x); }
While loop

9. Control Structures WhileLoop Example While loop int x = 0; do {
System.out.println(x);
x = x+1;
} while(x<10);
While loop

10. Control Structures Loop Do-while loop
The block of do-while will be executed at least once with any condition. For the next execution, it checks the condition. If it is true, then block will be executed.
Do-while loop
Syntax: do {
statement }
while(condition)

11. Control Structures Loop Do-while loop
The do-while loop is identical to the while loop except that the test is evaluated at the end of the loop.
Do-while loop do {
statement1;
[...]
} while (boolean-expression);

12. Control Structures Do-while loop
Because the looping condition is evaluated at the end of the loop body, the loop body is guaranteed to execute at least once.
Do-while loop

13. Control Structures Loop Example Do-while loop int count = 0; do {
System.out.println(count);
} while(count<10);
Do-while loop

14. Control Structures Loop Example Do-while loop int x = 0; do {
System.out.println(x);
x = x+1;
} while(x<10);
Do-while loop

15. Control Structures For Loop For loop For loop Is same as while loop.
All the three statement are included in same line.
Syntax:
For loop
for(var=startvalue;var<=endvalue;var=var+increment) {
code to be executed }

16. Control Structures For Loop For loop
When the loop first start the initialization portion of the loop is executed. Generally there is an expression that sets the value of the loop control variable. which act as a counter that control the loop .It is important to understand the initialization portion is executed just once. Next, condition is executed. This must be Boolean expression. It usually test the loop control variable against the target value.
If it is true then the body of the loop is executed and if false then loop terminated.
For loop

17. Control Structures For Loop Example For loop
public static void main (String args[]) {
int t=2,i;
for(i=1; i<10; i++ ) {
System.out.println(t+ ”*” +i+ “ = ” + (t*i)); }
For loop

18. Control Structures For Loop Example For loop Output: I am so smart
for (int i = 1; i <= 4; i++) {
// repeat 4 times
System.out.println("I am so smart"); }
For loop
Output:
I am so smart

19. Control Structures For Loop Example For loop Output:
int highTemp = 5;
for (int i = -3; i <= highTemp / 2; i++) {
System.out.println(i * ); }
For loop
Output:

20. Control Structures Loop Break and Continue
Break: The current loop is forced to terminate immediately.
Continue: It is used to force the flow of control back to the top of the loop.

21. Control Structures Work the same as in C / C++
if/else, for, while, do/while, switch
i = 0;
while(i < 10) {
a += 1;
i++; }
do {
a += i;
} while(i < 10);
if(a > 3) {
a = 3;
else {
a = 0;
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
switch(i) {
case 1:
string = “foo”;
case 2:
string = “bar”;
default:
string = “”;

22. Control Structures (Contd…)
Java supports continue & break keywords also
Again, works very similar to C / C++
Switch statements require the condition variable to be of char, byte, short or int type
for(i = 0; i < 10: i++) {
if(i == 5)
continue;
a += i; }
for(i = 0; i < 10: i++) {
a += i;
if(a > 100)
break; }

23. Sample Exercise What are the errors in these loops? Answer :
int x = 0;
while(x<10); {
System.out.println(x++); }
Answer :
this is an endless loop it is valid if x>10 .

24. Sample Exercise What will be the output for this program ? Answer :
long[] primes = new long[20];
primes[0] = 2;
primes[1] = 3;
long[] primes2=primes;
System.out.println(primes2[0]);
primes2[0]=5;
System.out.println(primes[0]);
Answer :
2,5
