C.17 do
…while
Repetition Statement
The do…while repetition statement
is similar to the while
statement. In the while
, the program tests the loop-continuation condition at the beginning of the loop, before executing the loop’s body; if the condition is false, the body never executes. The do
…while
statement tests the loop-continuation condition after executing the loop’s body; therefore, the body always executes at least once. When a do
…while
statement terminates, execution continues with the next statement in sequence. Figure C.16 uses a do
…while
(lines 10–14) to output the numbers 1–10.
