Java Loops – For, While, and Do
Java supports three types of loops: For, While, and Do.
The Java For Loop
The Java for loop is a looping construct which continually executes a block of statements over range of values.
Java for Loop Syntax
The syntax of a for loop in Java is:
for (initialization; termination; increment) {
statement
}
Example Java for Loop
Here is a Java for loop which prints the numbers 1 through 10.
for (int loopvar = 1; loopvar <= 10 ; loopvar++) {
System.out.println(loopvar);
}
The Java While Loop
A Java while loop is a looping construct which continually executes a block of statements while a condition remains true.
Java while Loop Syntax
The syntax of a while loop in Java is:
while (expression) {
statement
}
Example Java while Loop
Here is a Java while loop that prints the numbers 1 through 10.
int loopvar = 1; // Declare and initialize the loop counter
while (loopvar <= 10) { // Test and loop
System.out.println(loopvar); // Print the variable
loopvar = loopvar + 1; // Increment the loop counter
}
The Java Do Loop
A Java do loop is similar to the Java while loop, except that the while test happens at the bottom of the loop. This means that the loop always executes at least once.
Java do Loop Syntax
The syntax of a do loop in Java is:
do {
statement(s)
} while (expression);
Example Java do Loop
Here is a Java do loop that prints the number 1 — even though the test fails.
int loopvar = 1; // Declare and initialize the loop counter
do {
System.out.println(loopvar); // Print the variable
loopvar = loopvar + 1; // Increment the loop counter
} while (loopvar >= 10); // Test and loop

- Java vs. JavaScript
Java and JavaScript are two different programming languages which have similar names and share similar syntax. Java is a complete object oriented programming language which is designed to create applets or stand-alone applications. JavaScript is a more simple programming language which is designed to create scripts for use on the World Wide Web. Java bytecode [...]...

- Java Source Code
Java source code is code that you write in the Java programming language. Java source code is converted to Java bytecode by the Java compiler. Java source code files usually have the .java extension. Sun recommends that Java source code files be no longer than two thousand lines. Larger source code files should be split [...]...
