Lesson 1.9 For Loops

Description

In this lesson. students learn how to use for loops in their programs. The for loop allows students to repeat a specific part of code a fixed number of times.

For loops are written like this:

for(int i = 0; i < 4; i++)
{
    // Code to be repeated 4 times
}

Objective

Students will be able to:

  • Create for loops to repeat code a fixed number of times
  • Explain when a for loop should be a used
  • Utilize for loops to write programs that would be difficult / impossible without loops
