Lesson 4: Repetition Control Structure Flashcards
are used to execute a block of code
repeatedly based on a given condition or set of conditions
Looping statements
These
statements are fundamental to Java programming, allowing for
iteration over data structures, repetitive tasks, and more
Looping statements
4 types of looping statements in Java
- For loop
- While loop
- Do-while loop
- Nested loop
is a control structure that allows repeated execution of
a block of code for a specific number of times
for loop
It is typically used when the
number of iterations is known beforehand
for loop
is executed (one time) before the
execution of the code block
Initialization
defines the condition for executing the code block
Condition
is executed (every time) after the code block has been executed
Update
repeatedly executes a block of code as
long as a specified condition remains true
while loop
It is ideal for
situations where the number of iterations is not
predetermined
while loop
The loop continues to run as long as this condition evaluates
to true
Condition
The statements inside the loop execute repeatedly until the condition becomes false
Code block
is a post-tested loop, meaning it executes the
body of the loop at least once before checking the condition
do-while loop in Java
This loop is
useful when you need to ensure that the loop body is executed at least
once, regardless of whether the condition is true or false
do-while loop
Do-while loop process repeats until the condition
becomes ____
false
