In c there are three types of loop: (a)loop (b)while loop (c)do while for loop: This loop is used when we have to execute a part of code in finite times. It is per tested loop. Syntax of for loop: for (Expression 1; Expression 2; Expression 3){ Loop body } Order of movement of control in for loop: First time: Expression 1-> Expression 2->Loop body -> Expression 3 Second time and onward: Expression 2->Loop body -> Expression 3 That is expression 1 only executes in the first iteration. From second iteration and onward control doesnt go to at the expression 1.For example: #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=0;i<=4;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0;

} Output: 0 1 2 3 4 Explanation of each term of syntax: Expression 1: It is called initialization expression. Task of this expression is to initialize the looping variables. Properties of expression 1: 1. Expression1 can initialize the more than one variable. For example: #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i,j,k; for(i=0,j=2,k=1;i<=4;i++){ printf("%d ",i+j+k); } return 0; } Output: 3 4 5 6 7 2. Expression1 is optional. For example: #include<stdio.h> void main(){ int i=1; for(;i<=4;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0; } Output: 1 2 3 4 3. Unlike to the java in c we cannot declare the variable at the expression1. Fo r example: #include<stdio.h> int main(){ for(int i=0;i<=10;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0; } Output: ce Expression 2: It is called as conditional expression. Task of expression is to c heck the condition and if it is false then it terminates the loop. For example: #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=1;i<=3;i++){ printf("hi ");

} printf("%d",i); return 0; } Output: hi hi hi 4 Properties of expression2: 1. Expression2 can have more than one checking condition and if any condition i s false loop will terminate. For example: (a) #include<stdio.h> void main(){ int i,j=2; for(i=0;i<=5,j>=0;i++){ printf("%d ",i+j); j--; } return 0; } Output: 2 2 2 (b) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i,j=2; for(i=0;j>=0,i<=5;i++){ printf("%d ",i+j); j--; } return 0; } Output: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2. Expression2 is also optional. For example: #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int j; for(j=0; ;j++){ printf("%d ",j); if(j>=2) break; } return 0; } Output: 0 1 2 3. It can perform task of expression1 as well as expression3. That is it can ini

tialize the variables as well as increment the variables. For example: (a) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(;i=0,i<=3 ;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0; } Output: Infinite Loop (b) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i=0; for(;i+=2,i<5 ;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0; } Output: 2 4. If expression2 is zero means condition is false and any non zero number means condition is true. For example (a) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=0;-5 ;i++){ printf("%d ",i); if(i==3) break; } return 0; } Output: 0 1 2 3 (b) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=5;0 ;i++){ printf("%d ",i); } return 0; }

Output: 5 Expression 3: It is called as instrumentation expression. Task of this expression is to increm ent the variable. Properties: 1. We can increment more than one variable at the same time in the expression3. For example (a) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i,j,k; for(i=0,j=0,k=0;i<=5,j<=4,k<=3;i++,++j,k+=2){ printf("%d ",i+j+k); } return 0; } Output: 0 4 (b) #include<stdio.h> void main(){ int i,j=0; for(i=0;i<=3;++i,i++,++j ){ printf("%d %d ",i,j); } return 0; } Output: 0 0 2 1 2. Expression 3 is also optional. For example #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=0;i<=3; ){ printf("%d ",i++); } return 0; } Output: 0 1 2 3 Loop body: Loop body contains the part of code which we have to execute multiple numbers of times. Properties of loop body: 1. If loop body contain only one statement then brace is optional. For example: (a)

#include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i,j=0; for(i=0;i<=3;++i,i++,++j ) printf("%d %d ",i,j); } return 0; } Output: 0 0 2 1 (b) #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int x,y=5; for(x=0;x<3;x++) if(y>=5) printf(" %d",x); return 0; } Output: 0 1 2 2. Loop without body is possible. For example #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=0;i<=10;i++); printf("%d",i); return 0; } Output: 11 3. Braces of loop body behave as block. For example #include<stdio.h> int main(){ int i; for(i=0;i<=2;i++){ int i=8; printf("%d ",i); } printf("%d",i); return 0; } Output: 8 8 8 3 While loop Do while loop

Hi karthik, You are right. It is bug of turbo c compiler. Loop will execute at one time even condition is false. Hi sofi, You can see in each iteration value of i becomes zero. so loop condition will al ways true. 7/31/10 12:10 AM anish said... Please explain 1(b) and 3(b) more clearly 5/29/11 9:09 PM anish said... sorry not 3(b) but 3(a) how it will be infinite loop and not 0 1 2 3 5/29/11 9:13 PM Ritesh kumar said... Hi Anish, 3(a) As you know i=0,i<=3 will be evaluated in each iteration. So due to i=0 value of i will alway 0. So loop will print 0, 0, 0 and so on 5/30/11 11:15 AM anish kumar said... ya it is clear now ,thanks 6/3/11 4:02 PM Anonymous said... thanks for this site dude 7/21/11 1:05 AM Anonymous said... void main() int i; clrscr(); for(i=0;7<=6;i++) { printf("santosh"); } getch(); } HOW THIS CODE IS WORKING ..PLZ XPLAIN IT..I AM CHKED THIS CODE IN TURBO C , I AM

Dear first Anonymous, see the comment below Ritesh kumar said... Hi karthik, You are right. It is bug of turbo c compiler.

Scope of auto variables are block in which it has been declared. When program control goes out of the sc ope auto variables are dead. So variable i which has been declared inside for lo op has scope within loop and in each iteration variable i is dead and re-initial ized. 1/11/12 4:04 PM jyoti said... can anyone tell me the ans of last question is 8,8,2 how is it why it it is not 8,8,8,3 2/10/12 12:14 PM
