Ideas in this flowchart
- Java loop structures and conventions
- Java supports while, for, and do-while loops.
- These loops use the keywords while, for, and do together with another while.
- Loop continuation conditions are enclosed in parentheses, and associated code blocks are enclosed in curly brackets.
- The opening curly bracket appears on the same line as the while keyword and condition; the inner block is consistently indented.
- A continuation condition has no semicolon because it is not an executable statement.
- Including a semicolon after the continuation condition can produce unintended results, as with an if-statement.
- Code Sample 28.1 demonstrates a basic while loop in Java.
- The loop initializes i to 1.
- The loop continues while i <= 10.
- The loop performs an action inside its block.
- Each iteration increases i by one using i++.
