00:02 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on while loop in java. |
00:06 | In this tutorial, you will learn:
|
00:12 | For this tutorial, we are using:
|
00:21 | To follow this tutorial, you must have knowledge of relational operators in Java. |
00:26 | If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website as shown. [1] |
00:36 | Here is the structure of a while loop. |
00:39 | It has two parts. |
00:41 | One is the loop running condition and the second is the loop variable. |
00:48 | Let us now look at an example. Switch to Eclipse. |
00:55 | Here, we have the eclipse IDE and the skeleton required for rest of the code. |
01:00 | I have created a class WhileDemo and added the main method to it. |
01:05 | We shall print the numbers from 1 to 10 using a while loop. Type: int n = 1;. |
01:15 | This variable 'n' is going to be our loop variable. |
01:21 | Type: while in parenthesis n less than or equal to 10 open and close braces. |
01:33 | This condition is called loop running condition. |
01:37 | It means the loop will run as long as this condition is true. |
01:42 | In our case, it will run as long as the value of 'n' is less than or equal to 10. |
01:47 | And it will stop only when the value of 'n' becomes greater than 10. |
01:53 | Inside the loop, we shall print the value of 'n'. |
01:58 | System.out.println(n); and then increment it n = n + 1; |
02:12 | This way, first 1 is printed and then the value of 'n' becomes 2. |
02:18 | Then the loop condition is checked. |
02:21 | Since it is true, 2 is printed and n becomes 3. |
02:25 | And so on.. loop progresses until 10 is printed. After that 'n' becomes 11 and the condition is not true and the loop will stop. |
02:37 | So, let us see the code in action. |
02:39 | Save and run. |
02:47 | As we can see, the numbers from 1 to 10 are printed. |
02:52 | Now, we shall print numbers from 50 to 40. |
02:58 | So, we start with 50. Change n = 1 to n = 50. |
03:03 | And We go till 40, |
03:05 | in other words, as long as 'n' is greater than or equal to 40. So, change the condition to n greater than or equal to 40. |
03:16 | And since we are looping from a bigger number to a smaller number, we have decremented the loop variable. |
03:22 | So Change n=n+1 to n=n-1. |
03:27 | Save and run. As we can see, the numbers from 50 to 40 have been printed. |
03:42 | Now we shall print the first 10 multiples of 7. |
03:48 | To do that, we start with 7. |
03:50 | So, change n = 50 to n = 7 and then we end with 70. |
03:57 | Change the condition to n less than or equal to 70. |
04:03 | This way, we make sure that the loop stops at 70. |
04:07 | To get the multiples, we shall increment the loop variable by 7. |
04:12 | So, change n=n-1 to n= n+7; |
04:18 | This way, first 7 is printed and then 'n' becomes 14, 14 is printed and so on until 70. Save and run. |
04:33 | As we can see, the first 10 multiples of 7 are printed. |
04:43 | We can also use a while loop to get the sum of digits of a number. |
04:47 | Let us see how to do so. |
04:49 | First, clear the main method. |
04:54 | int n equal to 13876;. This is the number. |
05:02 | Then int dSum equal to 0. The variable dsum which is symbolic for digit sum will contain the sum of digits. |
05:18 | Type: while n greater than 0 open close parentheses. |
05:27 | The reason for using this condition will be evident in a while. |
05:32 | To get the sum of digits, we must first get the digits. |
05:36 | To do that, we use the modulo operator. |
05:40 | Type: dSum = dSum + (n % 10) So, we get the unit's digit and add it to dsum. |
05:52 | After that we remove the digit by dividing by 10. n = n / 10 |
06:08 | So when the loop is run for the first time, dSum will be 6 and 'n' will become 1387. |
06:15 | And when the loop is run for the second time, dSum will be sum of 7 and 6 which is 13 and 'n' will become 138. |
06:22 | And so on as the loop progresses, the digits will be removed from n and finally |
06:28 | n becomes zero. After that the condition 'n greater than 0' will be false and the loop will stop. |
06:36 | So, let us now add a print statement: |
06:42 | System.out.println(dSum) |
06:51 | Let us see the code in action. Save and run. |
06:59 | As we can see, the sum of digits which is 25 has been printed. |
07:06 | This way a while loop which is one of the most fundamental constructs in programming can be used. |
07:16 | This brings us to the end of the tutorial. |
07:20 | In this tutorial, we have learned:
About while loop How to use it. |
07:26 | As an assignment for this tutorial, solve the following problem. |
07:29 | Given a number, compute its reverse by using a while loop. Example: 19435 => 53491 |
