Discussion 6b Loops and their parts.

Lyzannette Figueroa - March 2, 2023 Leave a Comment

Hello everyone,

Loops

Loops are used in programming to continue a sequence over and over again, until a certain condition is complete. This is used in business operations to ensure that you do not have to manually repeat a certain objective. One of the benefits from using loops is that you do not have to add the same code multiple times within a code, this will also make things a lot easier if you need to change or add something. You will not have to change each code manually you can change one and it will change all at the same time.  There are three different types of loops that can be used for different situations, their functions are represented by for, while, and do. The first loop I want to talk about is the for Loop contains three statements, the instruction this is the first part of the loop which will only get executed one time. The next part is the condition, this part is checking to see if the conditions are met if they are not then the loop will continue until the condition is met. The last part of the for loop happens when the conditions are met then you will jump to the final instructions. The while loop begins with the instructions that then lead to a Boolean expression, this expression will use the true or false condition within the loop, once the condition is complete it will follow the last instruction within the curly brace. Finally, the do …while loop is very similar to the while loop but in the do …while loop you have to first go through the loop before the Boolean expression is checked. These are the three types of loops and their parts.
