for Loop
Explore the use of the for loop in D programming to manage iterations clearly and efficiently. Understand its syntax, how it contrasts with while loops in variable scope, and how to control loop execution using break and continue. Gain practical knowledge that sets a foundation for creating structured loops in your programs.
We'll cover the following...
for loop
The for loop serves the same purpose as the while loop. for makes it possible to put the definitions and expressions concerning the loop’s iteration on the same line.
Although for is used much less than foreach in practice, it is important to understand the for loop first. We will see foreach in a later chapter.
The sections of the while loop
The while loop evaluates the loop condition and continues executing the loop as long as that condition is true. For example, a loop to print the numbers between 1 and 10 may check the condition less than 11.
To be compilable as D code, number must have been defined before its first use:
int number = 1;
while (number < 11)
Iterating the loop can be achieved by incrementing ...
