Introduction to Loops:
• Loops are essential control structures that allow repetitive execution of code.

• They help automate tasks and handle repetitive operations efficiently.


‘for’ Loop

‘while’ Loop Types of Loop

‘do-while’ Loop
The ‘for’ Loop
• In this example, the outer loop iterates over rows, and the inner loop
iterates over columns.
• Each iteration of the inner loop prints the current row and column indices.

{ // code to be executed repeatedly }
Example of a ‘for’ Loop

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
printf("Iteration: %d\n", i);
}
return 0;
Output: }

The ‘while’ Loop

• Used when the number of iterations is not known in advance.

• The condition is checked before each iteration.

Syntex

while (condition) {
// code to be executed repeatedly
}
Example of a ‘while’ Loop

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int i = 0;
while (i < 5) {
printf("Iteration: %d\n", i);
i++; Output:
}
return 0;
}
The ‘do-while’ Loop
• Similar to while loop but guarantees at least one execution
of the loop body.
• The condition is checked after each iteration.

Syntex

do {
// code to be executed repeatedly
} while (condition);
Example of a ‘do-while’ Loop

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int i = 0;
do {
Output:
printf("Iteration: %d\n", i);
i++;
} while (i < 5);
return 0;
}
Nested Loop:

• Nested loops are loops within loops.


• They are used when you need to perform a repetitive task within another
repetitive task.
• Commonly used for tasks involving multi-dimensional arrays or grids.
Example of a Nested Loop
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int rows = 3;
int cols = 3;

// Outer loop for rows


for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++) {
// Inner loop for columns Output:
for (int j = 0; j < cols; j++) {
printf("(%d, %d) ", i, j);
}
printf("\n");
}
return 0; • In this example, the outer loop iterates over rows, and the inner loop
} iterates over columns.
• Each iteration of the inner loop prints the current row and column indices.
Choosing the Right Loop
• Use for when you know the number of iterations.

• Use while when the condition depends on external factors.

• Use do-while when you want the loop body to execute at least once.
Common mistakes
• Forgetting to update the loop variable.

• Infinite loops (ensure proper termination conditions).


Conclusion
• Loops are fundamental tools for efficient programming.

• Mastering loops is crucial for any C programmer.
