Module 7 Looping Statements

What is the primary purpose of a loop in programming?

• To perform actions based on conditions

• To repeat a set of statements a given number of times

• To compare variables with constants

• To define data structures

What is the term used for the number of times a loop passes?

• Loop count

• Iteration

• Cycle

• Sentinel value

The iteration is initialized at the beginning whereas the last value of the loop is known as the

• Loop count

• Iteration

• Cycle

• Sentinel value

The loop repeats till the sentinel value.

• True

• False

Which of the following is NOT a necessary step in the construction of a loop?

• Initializing the loop variable

• Declaring the loop variable's data type

• Incrementing or decrementing the loop variable

• Assigning the last value to the loop variable

there are two types of loops.

What characterizes a finite loop?

• It has an unknown number of repetitions

• It runs indefinitely

• It has a certain number of repetitions and stops when the last value is reached

• It does not execute any statements

Why might some system programmers use infinite loops?

• For sorting arrays

• For system delay and operational delay inside the processor

• For initializing variables

• For defining functions

Looping statement are the statements execute one or more statement repeatedly several number of times.

• True

• False

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using looping statements in C language?

• Reduce length of code

• Take less memory space

• Increase the burden on the developer

• Reduce the time-consuming process to execute the program
