Week 9 FlowControl While

The document explains the concept of while loops in programming, detailing how they execute a block of code repeatedly as long as a specified condition is true. It provides several examples, including calculating the sum of numbers, finding the greatest common divisor, and implementing a guessing game. Additionally, it briefly compares while loops with for loops and introduces the do-while loop, which guarantees at least one execution of the loop body.

while loop

1
while: If the condition is true, then do the loop. It can perform work
repeatedly (calculation, output and input...)

while ( A )
{

B;

}
• Repeat B when A is true

• If A is false at the
beginning, then B will not
be executed

2
Example
int main()
{
int a = 10;
while (a > 0)
{
cout << "hi, " ;
}
How to stop it?
}

3
Example

int i = 1, sum = 0; //起始值設定


while ( i <= 100 ) //當 i 不等於100則繼續執行
{
sum += i ;
i=i+1;
}
cout << “The sum is ” << sum

4
Example: greatest common divisor (GCD) 最大公因數
int a = 210, b = 150, temp = 0; // a: Dividend, b: Divisor, temp: Remainder

while ( b != 0 )
{
temp = a % b; // Find the remainder of dividing a by b
a = b; // Assign b (divisor) to a (dividend)
b = temp; // Assign the remainder to b (divisor)
}

cout << “GCD is ” << a ;

// finally, remainder=0, and b=temp=0, the loop is terminated.

例：計算全班平均成績
int score,sum;
cout<<"please input score (-1 to stop) "<<endl;
cin>>score;
sum=0;
while (score !=-1) ////////////

？
{
sum=sum+score;
cout<< " temp sum= " << sum<<endl;
cout<< " please input next score" ;
cin>> score;
}

cout<< " total score is " << sum;

6
You can use while or for.

while for
int i , n; int i , n;
cin >> n ; cin >> n ;
i = 1 ; for( i = 1 ; i <= n ; i = i+1 )
while ( i <= n ){ {
cout << i*i << endl ;
cout << i*i << endl }
;
i = i+1;
}

7
do-while

do{
B B
} while( A );
true

■ Do B first, if A is true, continue to do b A


until A is false
false
■ B will be executed at least once

8
Example: Guess the number
#include<iostream>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
srand( time(NULL) ); /* 設定亂數種子 */
int no , guess , i=0 ;
no = rand() % 5 + 1 ;
do {
cout << " Plese guess an integer between 1 and 5" << endl;
cin >> guess ;
i=i+1 ;
if ( no != guess ) cout << "Guess wrong" ;
} while( no != guess );
cout << "Yes, you answered "<< i << " times" << endl;
return 0;
} 9
Option: to find the square root of m.
