Control Flow
These work just as in many other languages so will not go into further detail.
If/Else
if (test expression1) {
// statement(s)
}
else if (test expression2) {
// statement(s)
}
else {
// statement(s)
}
For
for (initializationStatement; testExpression; updateStatement) {
// statements inside the body of loop
}
While
while (testExpression) {
// the body of the loop
}
Do While
do {
// the body of the loop
}
while (testExpression);
Break and Continue
The break
statement ends a loop immediately when it is encountered. The continue
statement skips the current iteration of a loop and continues with the next iteration.
Goto
Just dont use this.... if you need it you are doing something wrong unless you have a very very special use-case.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int num, i = 1;
printf("Enter the number whose table you want to print?");
scanf("%d", &num);
table:
printf("%d x %d = %d\n", num, i, num * i);
i++;
if (i <= 10)
goto table;
}
Switch
Important to note here is that the values of expression and each constant-expression must have an integral type and a constant-expression must have an unambiguous constant integral value at compile time. Also the break here makes sure that it doesn't fall through to the other statements.
switch (expression) {
case constant-expression-1:
// statements
break;
case constant-expression-t2:
// statements
break;
default:
// default statements
}
