jGuru: Help: Using Java For-Loops

Print-friendly Version

by

Help is available for each task.

Task 1

Make a for-loop that prints "Hello" 5 times.

The basic syntax for a for loop is:

for(<initializer>;<loop test>; <increment>) {
   <loop body>
}

Task 2

Define an integer sum, initializing it to 0.

Define an "int" not an "Integer".

Task 3

Make a loop that counts from 1 to 6.

See help for task 1. In the next task you will add a loop within the body of this loop.

Task 4

Make an inner loop, nested within the previous loop, that counts from 1 to 3. The statement of the inner loop should increment sum.

To increment the variable sum, use the expression sum++

Task 5

Print out the value of sum.

The basic code to print out a string is:

System.out.println("Hello World");
