Java For Loop

The document explains the Java for loop, which is used when the number of iterations is known. It describes the components of a for loop, provides examples of printing numbers and even values, and introduces nested loops and for-each loops for iterating through arrays. The content is part of an ICT Java course taught by Mr. Joshua Rey J. Blacer.

Java For Loop


Java For Loop
• When you know exactly how many times you want to loop through a block of code, use the for loop
instead of a while loop:

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.

The example below will print the numbers 0 to 4:

Example explained

Statement 1 sets a variable before the loop starts (int i = 0).

Statement 2 defines the condition for the loop to run (i must be less than 5). If the condition is true, the loop will
start over again, if it is false, the loop will end.

Statement 3 increases a value (i++) each time the code block in the loop has been executed.

Another Example

This example will only print even values between 0 and 10:

Nested Loops
• It is also possible to place a loop inside another loop. This is called a nested loop.
• The "inner loop" will be executed one time for each iteration of the "outer loop":

For-Each Loop
• There is also a "for-each" loop, which is used exclusively to loop through elements in an array (or other
data sets):

The following example outputs all elements in the cars array, using a "for-each" loop:
