Control Structures II: Repetition
2
Learn about repetition (looping) control structures Explore how to construct and use count-controlled, sentinel-controlled, flag-controlled, and EOF-controlled repetition structures Examine break and continue statements Discover how to form and use nested control structures Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 2
3
There are many situations in which the same statements need to be executed several times Example Formulas used to find average grades for students in a class Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 3
4
Syntax while (expression) statement Expression is always true in an infinite loop Statements must change value of expression to false Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 4

Example 5-1 i = 0; //Line 1 while (i <= 20) //Line 2 { System.out.print(i + " "); //Line 3 i = i + 5; //Line 4 } System.out.println(); //Line 5 Output: 0 5 10 15 20 Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 6

Typically, while loops are written in the following form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 7
8
Used when exact number of data or entry pieces is known General form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 8
9
Used when exact number of entry pieces is unknown but last entry (special/sentinel value) is known General form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 9
10
Boolean value used to control loop General form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 10
11
Used when input is from files Sentinel value is not always appropriate In an EOF-controlled while loop that uses the Scanner object console to input data, console acts at the loop control variable The method hasNext, of the class Scanner, returns true if there is an input in the input stream; otherwise it returns false Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 11
12
The expression console.hasNext() evaluates to true if there is an input in the input stream; otherwise it returns false Expressions such as console.nextInt() act as the loop condition A general form of the EOF-controlled while loop that uses the Scanner object console to input data is of the form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 12
13
Suppose that inFile is a Scanner object initialized to the input file; in this case, the EOF- controlled while loop takes the following form: Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 13
14
Input file: customer’s account number, account balance at beginning of month, transaction type (withdrawal, deposit, interest), transaction amount Output: account number, beginning balance, ending balance, total interest paid, total amount deposited, number of deposits, total amount withdrawn, number of withdrawals Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 14
15
Solution Read data EOF-controlled loop switch structure of transaction types Determine action (add to balance or subtract from balance depending on transaction type) Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 15
16
Fibonacci formula for any Fibonacci sequence: a n = a n-1 + a n-2 Input: first two Fibonacci numbers in sequence, position in sequence of desired Fibonacci number (n) int previous1 = Fibonacci number 1 int previous2 = Fibonacci number 2 int nthFibonacci = position of nth Fibonacci number Output: nth Fibonacci number Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 16
17
if (nthFibonacci == 1) current = previous1; else if (nthFibonacci == 2) current = previous2; else { counter = 3; while (counter <= nthFibonacci) { current = previous2 + previous1; previous1 = previous2; previous2 = current; counter++; } Final result found in last value of current Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 17
18
Specialized form of while loop Simplifies the writing of count-controlled loops Syntax: for (initial expression; logical expression; update expression) statement Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 18
19
Execution Initial statement executes The loop condition evaluated If loop condition evaluates to true, execute for loop statement and execute update statement Repeat until loop condition is false Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 19

Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 20

Example 5-8 The following for loop prints the first 10 nonnegative integers: for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) System.out.print(i + " "); System.out.println(); Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 21
22
Example 5-9 1. The following for loop outputs the word Hello and a star (on separate lines) five times: for (i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { System.out.println("Hello"); System.out.println("*"); } 2. for (i = 1; i <= 5; i++) System.out.println("Hello"); System.out.println("*"); This loop outputs the word Hello five times and the star only once Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 22
23
Does not execute if initial condition is false Update expression changes value of loop control variable, eventually making it false If logical expression is always true, result is an infinite loop Infinite loop can be specified by omitting all three control statements Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 23
24
If logical expression is omitted, it is assumed to be true for statement ending in semicolon is empty Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 24
25
Input: N integers (positive, negative, and zeros) int N = 20; //N easily modified Output: number of 0 s, number of even integers, number of odd integers Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 25
26
for (counter = 1; counter <= N; counter++) { number = console.nextInt(); System.out.print(number + " "); switch (number % 2) { case 0: evens++; if (number == 0) zeros++; break; case 1: case -1: odds++; } //end switch } //end for loop Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 26
27
Syntax: Statements executed first, then logical expression evaluated Statement(s) executed at least once then continued if logical expression is true Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 27
28
Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 28
29
Used to exit early from a loop Used to skip remainder of switch structure Can be placed within if statement of a loop If condition is met, loop exited immediately Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 29
30
Used in while, for, and do... while structures When executed in a loop, the remaining statements in the loop are skipped; proceeds with the next iteration of the loop When executed in a while / do … while structure, expression evaluated immediately after continue statement In a for structure, the update expression is executed after the continue statement; then the loop condition executes Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 30
31
Provides new power, subtlety, and complexity if, if … else, and switch structures can be placed within while loops for loops can be found within other for loops Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 31
32
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) { for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++) System.out.print(" *"); System.out.println(); } Output : * ** *** **** ***** Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 32

Looping Mechanisms Counter-controlled while loop Sentinel-controlled while loop Flag-controlled while loop EOF-controlled while loop for loop do … while loop break statements continue statements Nested control structures Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, 3e 33
