What is iteration?
A programming technique to execute a block of code repeatedly.
Define 'for loop'.
A loop that executes a set number of times, typically using a counter variable.
True or false: A while loop must have a counter.
False, because a while loop continues until a condition is false, not based on a counter.
Difference between for loop and while loop.
For loops are used when the number of iterations is known; while loops are used for indefinite iterations.
Fill in the blank: The ______ statement exits a loop immediately.
break
What does 'continue' do in a loop?
It skips the current iteration and proceeds to the next iteration of the loop.
What is an infinite loop?
A loop that never terminates because its terminating condition is never satisfied.
What is an outer loop?
A loop that contains another loop inside it, called an inner loop.
True or false: Nested loops can lead to high time complexity.
True, because the total iterations increase with each nested loop.
What is a loop control variable?
A variable that determines how many times a loop will execute.
How do you declare a for loop in Java?
for(initialization; condition; increment/decrement) { // code }
What happens if the loop condition is never false?
The loop will run indefinitely, leading to an infinite loop.
True or false: The scope of loop variables is limited to the loop.
True, because loop variables can only be accessed within the loop.
Define 'do-while loop'.
A loop that executes its block of code at least once before checking the condition.
Fill in the blank: The ______ statement can be used to skip to the next iteration.
continue
What is a common use of for-each loops?
To iterate over elements in an array or collection without using an index.
Comparison of for loop vs. while loop.
- For loop: known iterations - While loop: unknown iterations
What type of loop is best for traversing an array?
Typically a for loop or for-each loop is best.
