FOP - CHAPTER 7

What is the primary purpose of a loop in programming?

• To terminate a program

• To repeat the execution of existing code

Which component of a loop sets the starting point?

• Condition

• Initialization

What type of loop executes as long as a particular condition exists?

• Conditional loop

• Count-controlled loop

In a count-controlled loop, what must be initialized?

• A counter variable

• A termination condition

What is the main difference between a while loop and a do while loop?

• While loop tests its expression before each iteration

• Do while loop does not have a body

Which of the following is true about the for loop?

• It cannot be used for count-controlled iterations

• It initializes, tests, and updates a counter variable

What does the break statement do in a loop?

• Continues to the next iteration

• Terminates the loop early

What is a sentinel in the context of loops?

• A special value that marks the end of input

• A variable that counts iterations

Which loop structure is ideal for situations where the exact number of iterations is known?

• For loop

• Do while loop

What happens when the continue statement is executed in a loop?

• The current iteration ends and the next one begins

• The loop resets to the beginning
