Loops in C<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

First, let’s understand why exactly we need looping. <\/span><\/p>\n

Take a look at the below program to print numbers from 1 to 10. <\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the left-hand side, you can see that I have used a couple of print statements with different arguments to achieve that goal. <\/span><\/p>\n

On the right-hand side, they write the same code in a smarter way, which saves your code space and avoids code redundancies. So, I can modify the same code using loop statements of ‘C’. It is looks a lot better than the without loop statement.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Looping helps you to execute a certain set of statements again and again until some condition is met. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So, usage of loop statements is very much common in programming, and use it generously whenever you need it in the programming. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In ‘C’ there are 3 types of loop statements.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. while loop <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. for loop <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. do\u2026while loop.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here<\/span> <\/span>while<\/b>, <\/span>for<\/b><\/span>,<\/span> and <\/span><\/span>do<\/b><\/span> all these are reserved keywords of ‘C’ standard. <\/span><\/p>\n
