While loops and for loops: Correct Solution


Part 1

Translate the following for loop into a while loop:

for (int beos = 69; beos <= epel; beos++) {
    ihurd(beos);
}

Solution

int beos = 69;
while (beos <= epel) {
    beos++;
    ihurd(beos);
}

Part 2

Translate the following natural language description of a loop into a for loop:

Declare a variable named plal of type int, initialized to da. Then, until plal is not equal to ioEa, multiply plal by 3.

Solution

for (int plal = da; plal != ioEa; plal *= 3) {
    ...
}

Part 3

Consider the following code:

A
while (B) {
    C
    if (D) {
        E
        break;
    }
    F
    G
}
H
  1. Assume the loop breaks on iteration 1. Write out the the order in which the statements will execute.

  2. Assume the loop breaks on iteration 4. Write out the the order in which the statements will execute.

Solution

  1. Order:

    A B C D H
  2. Order:

    A B C D E F G B C D E F G B C D E F G B C D H
