1. Code that displays numbers between 10 and 20
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
for(int i=11;i<20;i++){
cout<<i<<endl;
}
return(0);
}
2. Loops
Loops enable you to execute a block of code repeatedly, often iterating through elements
within objects or processing data associated with them. Here's a breakdown of common loop
types in OOP:
For loops:
These loops iterate over a collection of items within an object's attributes, typically an array or
list. They are efficient for processing each item in a sequential manner. Here's a simplified
example :
for (initialization; condition; increment/decrement) {
// Code to be executed in each iteration
}
While loops:
While loops execute a code block as long as a certain condition remains true. They offer more
flexibility for iterating until a specific criteria is met within an object's state. Here's an example:
while (condition) {
// Code to be executed in each iteration
}
3. Conditional Statements
Conditional statements, like if-else structures, allow you to control the flow of your program
based on the state of objects or their attributes. Here are common types:
If statements:
These check a condition and execute a code block only if the condition is true. They are
essential for making decisions based on object properties. Here's an example:
if (condition) {
// run this code if condition is true
}
If_else statements:
These allow for checking multiple conditions sequentially. You can chain multiple else if
statements to handle different scenarios based on an object's state. Example:
if (condition) {
// run this code if condition is true
} else {
// if the condition above is false, run this code
}
Key Points to Consider:
Loops and conditionals often work together. You might use a loop to iterate through an
object's collection and use conditional statements within the loop to make decisions
based on each item's properties.
Object-oriented programming encourages modularity. Loops and conditionals can be
encapsulated within object methods, promoting code reusability and making your
program more organized.
When using loops, ensure there's a clear condition for termination to avoid infinite
loops.
Benefits of Loops and Conditionals in OOP
Automation: Loops automate repetitive tasks on objects, improving efficiency.
Flexibility: Conditionals allow for dynamic behavior based on an object's state, making
programs more adaptable.
Code Reusability: Well-structured loops and conditionals within object methods can be
reused across different objects, reducing code redundancy.
