Chapter 4 Control Structures: Repetition Copyright ? 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Outline Objectives Algorithm Development Repetition Structures Problem Solving Applied: GPS Data C++ break and continue Statements Structuring Input Loops Problem Solving Applied: Weather Balloons Copyright ? 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Objectives Develop problem-solving solutions inC++ containing: Repetition structures that allow us to repeat a set of steps as long as a condition is true. Three common forms of input loops Algorithm development and descriptions of loops using flowcharts and pseudocode. Algorithm Development Copyright ? 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Example: Computing Velocity over a Range of Time. Sequential structures are not well suited for computing the same quantities repeatedly. Flow charts and pseudocode are useful to describe repetition.

Syntax: while (boolean_expression) statement; while (boolean_expression) { statement1; … statement_n; } Examples while (!isspace(ch)) cin.get(ch); //statement repeated until a // space character is read while (xy) { //statement block executed //while x0 ++cl; --x; } Infinite Loops An infinite loop is one in which theloop condition is always true. Selective execution of a break statement or aborting/exiting the program methods of escaping an infinite loop. Copyright ? 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Avoiding Bugs When programming longer programs,it is not uncommon to have a large number of error messages from the compiler. A sin
