Chapter 8

Iteration statements
Iteration statement causes statement to be executed zero or more times, subject to some loop-
termination criteria. When these statement are compound statement they are executed in order except
when either the break statement or the continue statement is encountered.

Java provides three iteration statements-while, do and for. Each of these iterates until its expression
evacuates to zero (false) or until loop termination is record with a break statement.

The statement part of an iteration statement cannot be a declaration. However, it can be a compound
statement containing a declaration. A detailed coverage of all these iteration statements has been given
in this chapter.

Before moving a head, let us first see what the elements that control a loop are

Elements of a loop

A loop consists of following your elemts:

Initialization expression
When the loop first start, the initialization of the loop is executed. Generally, this is an expression htat
sets the value of the loop control variable, which acts as a counter that controls the loop. It is
important to understand that the initialization expression is only executed once

Test expression

After initialization expression, test expression is evaluated. This must be a Boolean expression. It usally
tests the loop control variable against a target value. It this expression is true, then the body of the loop
is executed. If it is false, the loop terminates.

Update expression

After the test expression, the iteration portion of the loop is executed. This is usually an expression that
increments or decrements the loop control variable. The loop then iterates, first evaluating the test
expression, then executing the body of the loop and then executing the iteration expression with each
pass. This process repeats until the test expression is false.

Body of the loop

Body of the loop is that place where all statements are placed for execution. The statements that are
executed repeatedly as long as the test expression is true, from the body of the loop.

If the test expression is true then the body of loop is executed, after execution of loop body test
expression is tested again and if the test expression is true then body false.

Loop construct

Loop construct is also a respective control structure in nature. Computers are the suitable machines for
repetitive execution of statements. Sometimes we require a set of statements to be executed number of
times by chaining the values of one or more variables each time to obtain a different result. This type of
program execution is called looping. Java provides the following loop constructs for iterations:

1. While loop
2. Do-while loop
3. For loop

While loop

The while loop construct is used for repetitive execution of a program subject to the conditions which
may have zero (false) or non-zero (true) value.

General syntax for the while loop:

While (condition statements)

While is a keyword in java, condition is an expression and the statement can be a smile or compound
one.
Flow chart for the while loop

In the flow chart, if the condition evaluates to a non-zero(true) execution, the condition is
evaluated again and if te condition evaluates to a zero (false) execution, the while loop is
terminated.

Llustration-1

Post-increment, continue while loop.

This while-loop uses several syntax forms. It uses a post-increment in the while
loop condition. This means the < test is done before the increment is done.

Modulo: we also use a modulo test to see if a number is evenly divisible by 2. We

use the continue statement to stop the current iteration.

Java program that uses while, post increment, continues:

Do-while loop

Like a while loop, the do-while loop is another repetitive control structure. In
while loop, the condition is tested before execution whereas in a do while loop,
the condition is tested after execution. The do while loop is an exit-controlled
loop in java.

Condition may be a signal or compound statement. The condition may have 0 or

non-zero. A semicolon is placed at the end of the while statement.

While (condition);

Two types of loop

A pre-test loop is a loop in which the loop condition is tested before execution of
the body –for example, a while loop. The for loop is also a pre-test loop. Pre-test
loop is also known by the other names entry-controlled or top-tested loops.

A post-test loop is a loop in which the loop condition is tested after execution of
the body –for e3xample, a do-while loop. Post-test loop is also known by the
other names exit-controlled or bottom-tested loops.

Illustration-1

Develop a java program which counts the number of bounces a rubber ball makes
before it stops bouncing.

It is assumed that the ball reaches to 0.9 times of its previous bounce (height).
The ball is considered to be at rest if the height of the bounce is less than 0.5 cm
above the ground.

Give that initial height is 3 metre (notr: this program will work for any given
height)

For loop

The for loop is also used for repetitive execution of a code but for a fixed number
of times. The program knows well in advance how many times the loop is to be
executed.

This loop is executed at initial value, middle value and final value.

Execution of a for loop

1. In first step, the initial expression is evaluated.

2. In next step, the test expression is evaluated if the value is non-zero; the
loop is terminated without execution.
3. After the execution of for loop, the update expression is evaluated.

Flow chart for execution of for loop

The for loop is better when you are counting something. If you are doing
something an indefinite number of times, while loop may be the better choice.

1. As the cups comes upon the for keyword, control is diverted to the
initialization expression.
2. Once the expression is executed, control moves over to the test expression.
3. If the test expression is true, control passes to the body of the for loop
4. If the test expression is false, control passes to the next statement after the
closed brace.
5. Once control has passed through the body of the loop, the cup is forced to
perform a u-turn back up to the update expression of the loop.
6. Then control return to the test expression and back to step 3 and 4.

Simple program on for loop

Public void main () {

Int I;

For (i=1; I <=5; i++) {

[Link] (+i);

Output of the program

Variations of for loop in java

The initialization statement, condition statement and iteration statement are

not compulsory and they can be kept empty.

We can rewrite the above program in these ways also:

Variation1:

For loop without initialization and iteration statement

Public class for loop {

Public void main () {

 Int I =5;

For (; I <10 ;) {

[Link] (“I =” +i);

I++;

[Link] (“after for loop”);

In the above program, we have intentionally kept the initialization and

iteration part empty. But, to achieve this, we had to write the initialization
statement before the for loop and had to increment the counter inside the
body of the loop.

Variation2:

For loop without the condition statement

In the following program, we have eliminated the condition statement also,

but we have to modify the body of the for loop so that it does not become an
infinite loop. This is done by using the break statement the for loop body.
When the value of I becomes 10, the break statement terminates the for loop.
We will discuss the break statement in ht next topic>

Class for loop {

Public void main () {

Int I =5;

For (;;) {

[Link] (“i=” +i);

 I++;

If (i==10)

Break;

[Link] (“after for loop”);

Variation 3:

For loop with multiple initialization and update expression

It is not uncommon to initialize more than one variable, to test a compound

logical expression and to execute more than one statement. The initialization
and the action may be replaced by multiple statements, each separated by a
comma. The program segment given below demonstrates the initialization and
increment of two variables.

For (i=0, j=0; I <10; i++, j++)

[Link] (i);

In the above program segment, there are two initialization expressions; I =0 and j
=0. Next I < 10; is test expression and there are two update expressions; i++ and j+
+. These multiple expressions are executed in a sequence. First I =0 takes place
followed by j =0. During execution, first i++ takes place and then j++.

Variation 4:

For loop with optional expression

Sometimes, the update expression(s) and the test expression can be omitted.

For (i=0,i!=20;)
 I+=2;

In the above statement, the update expression is skipped. This loop will run until I
become 20.

If the variable I has alrey been initialized before, then the above statement can be
written as:

For (;i!=20;)

I+=2;

In the above loop statement, both the initialization and update expressions are
skipped.

Variation 5:

For loop running infinitely

The following program is an infinite loop as all the three parts of the for loop are
kept empty.

Public class for loop {

Public void main () {

For (;;) {

[Link] (“inside infinite loop”);

K = i*j;

Exceptions

Output of the program

Division by zero is not acceptable

Statement after catch

In the above program, the print in () inside the try block is not execute. It is
because, once an exception is thrown, the program transfers the control out of
the try block into the catch block. Once the catch statement is executed, the
program control continues with the next line in the java program just following
the try-catch block.

Write a java program to print Fibonacci series up to n terms using try and catch
statements.

[Link] (“enter the limit :”);

N=[Link] ([Link] ());

[Link] (b);

For (i=1;I <=n-2;i++) {

C=a+b;

B=c;

Public void main () {

Fibonacci ob =new Fibonacci ();

 [Link] ();

[Link] ();

Output of the program

Enter the limit:

Fibonacci series is

Multiple catch clauses

In java programming, more than one exception could be raised by a single

program code. This situation can be handled by two or more catch clauses. Each
clause catches different types of exception. When an exception is thrown, each
catch statement is looked in order. The first catch clause whose type matches the
exception is executed.

After execution of one catch statement, the other catch statements are bypassed.
In such a case, the execution continues after the try/catch block.

A try block an be followed by multiple catch blocks. The syntax for multiple catch
blocks looked like the following:

Try {
 //protected code

} catch (exception tyoe1 e1) {

// catch block

} catch (exception type2 e2) {

//catch block

} catch (exception type3 e3) {

//catch block

You can have any number of catches after a single try. If an exception occurs in
the protected code, the exception is thrown to the first catch block in the list. If
the data type of the exception throw matches exception type1, it gets caught
there. If not, the exception passes down to the second catch statement. This
continues until the exception either is caught or falls through all catches, in which
case the current method stops execution and the exception is thrown to the
previous method on the call stack.

Illustration

Show the use of multiple catch clauses:

Import [Link].*;

Class multiple catch {

Public static void main (string args []) {

Try {

Int number =args. Length;

[Link](“the number is =+number);

Int value =25 /number;

 Int ar[] ={1];

Ar[35] =99;

Catch (arithmetic exception e) {

[Link] (“divide the number by zero” +e);

Catch (arrayindexoutofboundsexception e) {

[Link] (“array object” +e);

[Link] (“after try/catch blocks”);

Output of the program

The number is=0

Divide the number by zero [Link]:/by zero

Understanding an infinite loop

The for loop is used to repeat one or more than one statement for a specified
number of times. While using for loops in the programs, it should be ensured that
loop’s ending condition should be met. If the ending condition is not met, the
loop continues for ever. This unending loop is called infinite loop. If such a
condition happens, this means that the program has an error in the loop.

Consider the following program:

Class infinite loop {

Public void main () {

Int n;

For (n=0; n< 100; n--) {

[Link] (“number is=”+n);

}
}

In the above program, the variable n is being decremented every time in the for
loop. But the was initialized to 0 in the start. In such a case, it will never be equal
to 100 but will remain less than 100. The loop will terminate only if n reaches 100
but beaver happens to be in the above program. Therefore, the loop will never
end. The above program can be corrected by suing the correct for statement as in
the following corrected program:

Class loop correct {

Public void main () {

Int n;

For (n=0; n < 100; n++) {

[Link] (“number is =”+n);

Jumping Jumping means transferring of control from one part to another part in a given program.
Jump statements transfer control unconditionally.
There are three types of jump statements in Java:
Nottit
•> continue statement
Break statement
*

Return statement
Out of these statements, the return statement can be used anywhere in the program
Whereas the other two statements are used inside the parts of the programs like loops.
Java also provides a function System. exit () that helps you break out of a program.

The break statement

The break statement is used when you want to skip over a loop instead of exiting
the entire program

The break statement appears in the body of while, for or switch statements.

The break statement exist the most currently loop.

If your program consists a while loop with another while loop, then the break
exist only the internal loop.

The continue statement

The break statement causes termination of the loop and reaches at the bottom of the loop. The continue
statement does opposite of the break statement. It forces the next iteration of the loop.
In case you use a continue statement in the body of while, do-while, for loop, the computer ignores any
other statement in the loop that follows the continue statement.

In the above nested loop, two hops have been used. The first loop is do loop and the second is while loop. In the
continue statement in while loop, the program execution reaches to the first statement of while loop where the
condition is tested. The statements after not execute. When the execution reaches at do loop, the execution
reaches at the end of do loop, (i.e. while statement) with the use of continue statement. Here again the
condition of execution of do loop is tested.

The labeled continue statement

The iabeied form of the continue statement skips the current iteration of an hop marked with the given label. The
following program uses nested loopsprogram uses the labeled form of continue to skip an iteration in the outer
loop

Illustration
public class MainClass1 {
Public static void main (String args[]) {
int limit = 20;
int factorial = 1;
Outer Loop ; for(int i = 1; i <= limit; {
Factorial = 1;
for(intj = 2;j<= j j +){

if(i>10&&i%2 == 1){
continue Outer Loop;
}
factorial *= j;
}
[Link] (i +"! is=" +factorial);
}
}
}

The return statement

The lastJump statement is return. The return statement is used to explicitly return from a method. That is, it
causes program control to transfer back to the caller of the method. The return statement immediately
Terminates the method in which it is executed
the return statement has two forms:
(1) one that returns a value and (2) one that does not. To return a value, simply put the value (or an expression
that calculates the value) after the return keyword.
return ++count;
the data type of the value returned by return must match the type of the method's declared return value.
When a method is declared void, use the form of return that does not return a value.
return;

Need of loops
Loops are the heart of programming. To write an efficient program, loops are required. Imagine you have to
write a program which performs a repetitive task such as counting from 1 to 100. Coding 100 lines to do this
task would be very cumbersome. There has to be an easier way, right? This is where loops come into the
picture. Loops are specifically designed to perform repetitive tasks with one set of code. Loops save a lot of
time. Let us have an idea as to why there is need of loops in Java programs.
1. Loops make the program code shorter. For known or unknown number of iterations, they are used in the
programs to execute the part of the program up to a fixed number of times or till a condition is met.
2. Nested loops are used for calculations in matrices and arrays. They can be used for sorting of array
elements, prepare number tables, searching an element, etc.
3. Loops can be used for recursion process. Methods can be used through loops and need of calling them
again and again is avoided.
4. Loops can be used for calculations.
Nested Loops
A nested loop is a term that describes when one loop is placed inside another loop. It is the same as using
ordinary loops, but it has some other options that you cannot do without using nested loops. The following
example prints a triangle of stars and shows you how to use nested loops.

Example:
Class Nested Loops {
Public void main () {
For (int row = 1; row <= 5; row++) {
For (int col = 1; col <= row; col++) //nested loop
[Link] (“*”);
[Link] ();
}
}
}
Output of the Program

Nested loops are also very useful when using two or more dimensional arrays. While all type of loops may
be nested, the most commonly nested loops areforloops are for loos..
A nested for loop has been shown below:
for(num2 = 0; num2 <= 9; num2++)
for(numl = 0;numl <= 9; numl++)
[Link] (num2 + " +numl);
-•
n

}
}
You can even have multiple levels of /7fis///7# such as a while loop inside an if statement inside another while
loop.

Nested loops
Program using nested do-while loops to generate a 9x9 multiplication table.
//multiple level of nesting
Class Multiple Nesting {
Public static void main (String args []) {
int row = 1;
do {
int column=1;
do {
if((row * column) < 10) {
[Link] ( ");
}
Else {
[Link] ( ");
}
[Link] ((row * column));
Column++:
}
•

Whi!e(column <= 9);

[Link]"); row++;
}
While (row <= 9);
}
}
Let us see how nested lops can be controlled using both continue andbreastatement
[Link] {
Public static void main () {
int i, j, k;
//outer label name
Outer: for(i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
[Link] ("Pass: +i); M

for(k = 2; k < 6; k++) {

for(j = 1; j < 20; j++) {
if(j % k != 1)
Continue;
[Link] (j + "");
}
[Link] ();
}
if(i ==3)
Break outer;
System. [Link] ();
ffl

Let us now see an example of labeled continue

Illustration
Use of Labeled Continue statement
Class Continue Break {
Public static void main () {

Int i, j, k;
//outer label name

Outer: for (\ = 1; i < 10; {

for(k = 2; k < 6; k++) {
for(j = 1; j < 20; {

Miscellaneous program

1 write a program to accept a number and check and display whether it is a niven
number or not.
(Niven number is that number which is divisible by its sum of digits).
Example :
Consider the number 126.
Sum of its digits is 1 + 2 + 6 = 9 and 126 is divisible by 9.
(From ICSE Exams)
Answer,
import [Link].*;
class NivenNumber {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System. in);
[Link] (" Enter a number:");
int n = [Link];
int c = n, d, sum = 0; //finding sum of digits
while(c > 0) {
d = c % 10; sum = sum + d;
c = c/10;
}
if(n % sum == 0)
[Link] pr\nl\n(n+" Is a Niven Number/');
else
[Link](n i" Is not a Niven Number.");
}
}
In the above program, we have used the Scanner class of [Link] package. The [Link] e

class is a simple text scanner which can parse primitive types and strings using regular expressions
Otherwise normally, we have used Buffered Reader class of Java Jo package.
Buffered Reader reads text from a character-input stream. It buffers characters and provides efffcfe
reading of characters, arrays and lines. The buffer size may be specified or the default size may 5
used. The default is large enough for most purposes.
Where Scanner is a simple text scanner which can parse primitive types and strings using requl
expressions. A Scanner breaks its input into tokens using a delimiter pattern, which by default match
whitespace. The resulting tokens may then be converted into values of different types usinq tlT
various next methods. e

Use BufferedReader if you want to get long strings from a stream and use Scanner if you wanf parse
specific type of token from a stream. t0
The same program has been written using Buffered Reader:
Import [Link].*;
Class NivenNumber {
Public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
InputStreamReader read = new InputStreamReader ([Link]); Buffered Reader in = new Buffered
Reader(read);
[Link] a number: ");
Int n = [Link] ([Link] ()); int c = n, d, sum = 0;
//finding sum of digits while(c > 0) {
d = c % 10;
sum = sum + d;
c = c / 10;
}
if(n % sum == 0)
[Link] (n+ "is a Niven Number.");
else
[Link] (n "is not a Niven Number.");

sum = sum + term;
}
[Link]("cos(x) = " +sum);
}
}
Output of the Program:
Value cf n =20
Value cf x =60.0
ccs(x) - 0.5000007660251953
Explanation of above program
Let n = 2, then the cosine series generated by above program is as follows:
initially, x\s converted to radian by multiplying it by 3.14159/180 and term and sum are also assigned the
value of L So, after line number 16 of the program, we have:
term = 1 and sum = 1
Now let us take a look at the working of for loop with n = 2:
Expression 1: term = term * [Link]((double)(-l), (double) (2 * i - 1)) * x * x / (2 * i * (2 * i - 1))
Expression 2: sum = sum + term Iteration 1: i = 1, term = 1, sum =1
Putting these values in Expression 1 we get,
term = 1 * [Link]((double)(-l), (double) (2 * 1 - 1)) * x * x / (2 * 1 * (2 * 1 - 1)) term = 1 * (-1)* x * x / 2 = -
x / 2!
2

Putting value of term in Expression 2 we have,

sum= l + (-x /2!) = l-x /2!
2 2

Iteration 2: i = 2, term = -x / 2!, sum = 1 - x / 2! Putting these values in Expression 1 we get,

2 2

term = (-x / 2!) * [Link]((double) (-1), (double) (2 * 2 - 1)) * x * x / (2 * 2 * (2 * 2 - 1)) term =-x / 2! *(-l) *
2 2

x * x / 12 = x /4! 4

Putting value of term in Expression 2 we get, sum = l-x /2! +x /4

Explanation of above program
Let //« 2, then the sine series generated by above program is as follows:
Initially, X is converted to radian by multiplying it by 3.14159/180 and term and sum are also assigned the
value of x.
term =xand 5^/77 «*
Now let us take a look at the vjorklng of for loop with n - 2:
Expression 1: term = (term * [Link]((double) (-1), (double) (2 * I -1)) * x * x) / (2 * I * (2 * I + 1))
Expression 2: sum = sum + term Iteration 1:1 = 1, term = x, sum = x
Putting these values in Expression 1 we get,
term = (x * [Link]((double) (-1), (double) (2 * 1 -1)) * x * x) / (2 * 1 * (2 * 1 + 1))
term = xM-l)*** / - / Putting value of t In Expression 2 we get,
x 6= x3 3!

sum= x + (-x /3!) = x-x /3!

3 3

Iteration 2:1 = 2, term = -x / 3!, sum = x - x / 3! Putting these values in Expression 1 we get,
3 3

term - (-x / 3! * pow ((double) (-1), (double) (2 * 2 - 1)) * * x) / (2 * 2 * (2 * 2 + 1)) t = (-x /3!)*(-l)*x*x/20
3 x 3

= x /5!

Putting value of t in Expression 2 we get, sum = x~x /3! + x /5!

 Switch statement tests a value against a set of integer’s constants including

characters.
 Switch statement may be nested.
 No semicolon is allowed with switch construct.
 An infinite loop is that which never ends.
 Java provides three loop constructs- while loop, do- while loop an for loop.
A semicolon should be placed after do while and while statements.
 In a do-while loop the condition is tested after execution whereas it is
tested before execution in a while loop.
 The for loop is used when the number of times the loop be executed is
known in advance.
 You cannot use continue statement in a switch statement.
