I have a little experience. Haven't done it in years, though. |

How do you create a loop which will carry out an operation for x number of times and then stop? LS |

Same way is in most languages use a for loop: for (int i = 0;i < 6; i++)
{
// some code to repeat here
}The loop abowe will loop 5 times (as long as "i" is less than 6) Jan Erik Mydland HoF admin |

Won't it run 6 times for when i = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5? [Edited 1 time, last edit on 10/31/2002 at 12:12 (GMT -5) by Caladriel] |

The way I'm reading the line, it should run 5 times. Run once: i=1 (0+1), twice i=2,third i=3, fourth i=4, fifth i=5, sixth i=6, meeting the end criteria and ending the loop. So you really don't count the initial value in the loop calculations. You want to fight? Fight me! HAHAHA |

No. You would count the initial value. the i++ only occurs at the end of the block -- at the "}" i starts at 0, the system does the compare, then it runs the code, then it increments i to 1. |

Slightly more complex now. How would you input 3 values and display the average of them? LS |
