Loops

What to Do?

1 - Read and complete Part 6a - Counted Loops

• • • Create a console program in order to work through the readings.

    • Make sure you complete all practice problems.

      • • • Solutions here: https://github.com/AldworthClass/Loops-in-CSharp-lesson

2 - Read and complete Part 6b - Conditional Loops

• • • • Create a console program in order to work through the readings

      • Make sure you complete all practice problems.

        • • Solutions here: https://github.com/AldworthClass/Loops-in-CSharp-lesson

2 - Complete Part 6 - Looping Programs and submit the programming assignment.

• • • All of your programs at this point should be error proof.

      • • Numeric conversion failures.

        • Maximums smaller than minimums.

          • • An infinite loop is an error.

        • Betting more than you have

        • etc...

    • Use a menu for the different parts:

SUBMIT

• • Part 6 - Looping Problems project.

    • • Use a menu to allow the user to choose a part to run:

      • 5 parts:

        • • Prompter (conditional)

          • Percent Passing (counted OR conditional)

          • Odd Sum (counted)

          • Random Numbers

          • Dice Game (add a loop to the dice game you made in Part 5)

      • Unless specified, you may complete each question with either a counted or conditional loop.

      • Your programs should not crash at this point due to invalid input.

Hints, TIPS and FAQs

Q: I have seen the keyword 'continue' used in a loop. What does it mean?

A: The continue statement in a loop can be used to skip the remaining body of the loop and continue on to the next iteration. See this link for more:

Q: I have a while loop that should end in a number of different conditions and I'm struggling to come up with a conditional statement for all of these conditions.

A: Sometimes it is just easier to use a boolean variable as your condition, and the inside the loop use various if statements to check for the various conditions.

ex.

bool done = false;

while (!done)

{

// body logic of loop

if (check for end condition 1)

done = true;

if (check for end condition 2)

done = true;

...

if (check for end condition n)

done = true;

}
