The three main types of looping control structures in C are for loops, while loops, and do-while loops. This course provides demos for how to work with looping and unconditional control structures in C. You will begin by creating a for loop which iterates over a block of code for as long as a certain condition is true. You will then experiment with the loop condition, the value of the loop variable, and the update expression for the loop variable, before moving on to iterating over arrays using for loops. You will also create nested for loops. Next, you will use while loops to execute some code while a condition is satisfied. You will explore the loop variable and iterate over arrays, then move on to do-while loops. Finally, you will learn about the unconditional control structures such as break, continue, goto, and return keywords. These are typically used with other control structures. After completing this course, you'll be able to implement while loops, for loops, do-while loops, break statements, and continue operators.
