while( condition ) statement
x = 5 ; while( x > 0 ) x-- ;
x = 0 ;
and the program would function
the same way.)
The loop:
a = 1 ; while( a < b ) a *= 2 ;
b
.
Just as for the if
statement, the body of the while
may be a compound statement instead of just a single statement.
For example, one approach to a counted loop would look like:
i = 0 ; while( i < 10 ) { printf( "%d\n", i ) ; i++ ; }
y
equal after this code fragmnt is executed?
y = 0 ; x = 11 ; while( x > y ) y += 3 ;
