For Loop Lecture

The document explains the for loop, a control structure in programming that allows for repeated execution of a code block a specific number of times. It includes syntax examples for both standard for loops and for-each loops, as well as explanations of the break and continue statements used to control loop execution. Additionally, it provides sample outputs to illustrate how these loops and statements work in Java.

For loop

- for loop is a repetition control structure that allows you


to efficiently write a loop that needs to be executed a
specific number of times

Engr. Babila
Syntax
for (statement 1; statement 2; statement 3) { // code block to

be executed }
Statement 1 is executed (one time) before the execution of the code block.
Statement 2 defines the condition for executing the code block.
Statement 3 is executed (every time) after the code block has been executed.

Syntax of for loop:


for(initialization; condition ; increment/decrement) {
statement(s); }

OUTPUT:
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) 0
1
{ System.out.println(i); } 2

Flow chart
For-Each Loop
There is also a "for-each" loop, which is used exclusively to loop through
elements in an array:

Syntax
for (type variableName : arrayName) { //
code block to be executed }

public class Main {


public static void main(String[] args) { OUTPUT:
Volvo
String[] cars = {"Volvo", "BMW", "Ford", "Mazda"};
for (: cars) { BMW
Ford
System.oString i ut.println(i);
} Mazda
}
}
Java Break
The break statement can also be used to jump out of a loop.

OUTPUT:
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
0
if (i == 4) { break; } 1
System.out.println(i); } 2
3
Java Continue
continue statement breaks one iteration (in the loop), if a specified condition
occurs, and continues with the next iteration in the loop.

OUTPUT:
0
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { 1
if (i == 4) { continue; } 2
3
System.out.println(i); } 5
