Types of Loop

Loops are the elements of programming in which a part of code is repeated a particular number of times. Loop executes the series of statements many times till the conditional statement becomes false.

Loops

Any task which is repeated more than one time is called a loop. Basically, loops can be divided into three types as while, do-while and for loop. There are so many programming languages like C, C++, JAVA, PYTHON, and many more where looping statements ca…

While Loop

Loop is a feature in the programming language. It helps us to execute a set of instructions regularly. The block of code executes until some conditions provided within that Loop are true.

Assignment for Computer Architecture You are to write a program in MIPS that computes N! using a loop. Remember N! is the product of all the numbers from 1 to N inclusive, that is 1 x 2 x 3 x (N – 1) x N. It is defined as 1 for N = 0 and is undefined for values less than 0. The program first requests the user to input the value of N (display a prompt first so the user knows what to do). If the input value is less than 0, the program is to display “N! undefined for values less than 0” and request input again. If the value input is non-negative, it is to compute N! using a loop. You are to have your name, the assignment number, and a brief description of the program in comments at the top of your program. Since this is an assembly language program, I expect to see comments on almost every line of code in the program. Also make the code neat (line up the commands and comments in nice columns)

Explain the main difference between a while-loop and a for-loop? When would you used one over the other?

Explain the difference between 'while loop' and 'do while loop' with an example for each one.
