Iteration statements:for loop in java

The most common iteration Statements in Java

Iteration Statement: for loop

The 'for' LOOP:

The for statement provides a compact way to iterate over a range of values. Programmers often refer to it as the "for loop" because of the way in which it repeatedly loops until a particular condition is satisfied. If only one statement being repeated, there is no need for the curly braces. When using this version of the for statement, keep in mind that,The initialization expression initializes the loop; it's executed once, as the loop begins.

When the termination expression evaluates to false, the loop terminates.The increment expression is invoked after each iteration through the loop; it is perfectly acceptable for this expression to increment or decrement the loop control variable.the loop then iterates,first evaluating the conditional expression,then executing the body of the loop,and then executing the iteration expression with each pass.this process repeat until the controlling expression is false

Let’s look at syntax of 'for 'loop

for (initialization; termination; increment) 

{

     //statement(s);

}

Example for simple 'for' loop

//demonstrate the for loop

Class for tick

{

Public static void main(string arg[])

{

int n;

for (n=10;n>0;n--)

{

  System.out .println(“tick” +n);

}

}

}
