 Nested Loops
Nested Loop 3

A loop within an other loop is called nested loop.

 int main()
 {
 for(int i=1; i<=5; i++)
Output
 { 1
 for(int j=1; j<=i; j++) 12
123
 {
1234
 cout<<j; 12345
 }
 cout<<"\n";
 }
 return 0;
 }
Nested Loop 4

 int main()
 {
 for(int i=5; i>=1; i--)
 {
 for(int j=i; j>=1; j--) Output
 { 54321
4321
 cout<<j;
321
 } 21
 cout<<"\n"; 1
 }
 return 0;
 }
Nested Loop 5

 int main()
 {
 for(int i=5; i>=1; i--)
 {
 for(int j=1; j<=i; j++)
 { Output
12345
 cout<<j; 1234
 } 123
12
 cout<<"\n";
1
 }
 return 0;
 }
Nested Loop 6

 int i=5;
 while(i>=1)
 {
 int j=1;
 while(j<=i)
 {
Output
 Cout<<j; 12345
 j++; 1234
123
 }
12
 i--; 1
 Cout<<“\n”;
}
Nested Loop 7

 for(int i=5;i>=1;i--)
 {
 for(int j=1;j<=i;j++)
 {
 Cout<<“*”;
 } Output

Now lets try a real world example of nested 9
for loop.

 Suppose there are 10 students, you need to enter record of 5 quizzes

marks against each students. Then, their result is averaged and
displayed separately.
 For example:
 Enter student 1 marks
 Enter Marks of Quiz 1: 10
 Enter Marks of Quiz 2: 9
 Enter Marks of Quiz 3: 5
 Enter Marks of Quiz 4: 6
 Enter Marks of Quiz 5: 8
 Average Marks of Student 1 = 7.6
 Enter student 2 marks

By using nested loop 11
What makes a bad program? 12

 Repeating trial and error without

understanding the problem
 Writing Code without detailed analysis
and design (Abstraction, Algo)
 Writing tricky and dirty programs
Programms: 13

 Write a program using for, while and do while loops to:

 Display numbers from 0 to 100
 Display numbers from 100 to 0
 Display even numbers from 0 to 100
 Display odd numbers from 0 to 100
 Display even numbers from 100 to 0
 Display odd numbers from 100 to 0
 Display Square of numbers from 0 to 100
 Display Cube of numbers from 0 to 100
 Display Square of numbers from 100 to 0
 Display Cube of numbers from 100 to 0
 Display Square of numbers from 40 to 100
 Display Cube of numbers from 50 to 100
 Display Square of numbers from 500 to 1000
 Display Cube of numbers from 1000 to 1500
 Display Average of even numbers from 1000 to 1200
 Display Average of odd numbers from 1200 to 1000
