Counter Control Loops.

Objectives

1. Define and understand counter controlled loops.
2. Examine some examples of counter controlled loops.

Notes

• The type of loops we have been looking at are called counter controlled loops.
• In this case, the LCV is a counter, and we know, or could compute the number of times we will go through the loop based on our data.
• The term is not important, but the idea is.
• We counted from 0 to 4
• Count from 1 to 10
• Countdown from 10
• Write a program that asks the user for a start, stop and skip value and prints the integers from the start to the stop, skipping by the skip value. You may assume the skip value is positive and that start ≤ high. Please place a comma between each number, but no comma after the last value.

  import java.util.Scanner;
  
  class Count{
      public static void main(String[] args) {
           int start,
               stop,
               skip;
  
           int i;
  
           Scanner myScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
  
           System.out.print("Enter the start value => ");
           start = myScanner.nextInt();
           System.out.println();
  
           System.out.print("Enter the stop value => ");
           stop = myScanner.nextInt();
           System.out.println();
  
           System.out.print("Enter the skip value => ");
           skip = myScanner.nextInt();
           System.out.println();
  
           i = start;
           System.out.print(i);
           i = i + skip;
           while (i <= stop) {
               System.out.printf(", %d", i);
               i += skip;
           }
           System.out.println();
  
      }
  }
