Jumps in loops : How many types of jump statements are there in C++ language.

Introduction  

Jumps in loops are used to control the flow of loops. There are two statements used to implement jump in loops - Continue and Break. These statements are used when we need to change the flow of the loop when some specified condition is met.

1. Continue

Continue statement is used to skip to the next iteration of that loop. This means that it stops one iteration of the loop. All the statements present after the continue statement in that loop are not executed.
example :

int i;
for (i=1; i<=20; i++) {
if (i%3==0) {
continue;
}
cout<<i<<endl;
}

In this for loop, whenever i is a number divisible by 3, it will not be printed as the loop will skip to the next iteration due to the continue statement. Hence, all the numbers except those which are divisible by 3 will be printed.

2. Break

Break statement is used to terminate the current loop. As soon as the break statement is encountered in a loop, all further iterations of the loop are stopped and control is shifted to the first statement after the end of loop.
example :

int i;
for (i=1; i<=20; i++) {
if (i==11) {
break;
}
cout<<i<<endl;
}

In this loop, when i becomes equal to 11, the for loop terminates due to break statement, Hence, the program will print numbers from 1 to 10 only.

Sorting Techniques : Selection Sort , Bubble Sort , Insertion Sort

Sorting Techniques 1. Selection Sort: Idea: The inner loop selects the minimum element in the unsorted array  and places the elements in increasing order. Time complexity: O(N 2 ) #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() {     int n;     cin>>n;   int arr[n];    for(int i=0;i<n;i++){          cin>>arr[i];   }  for(int i=0;i<n-1;i++){       for(int j=i+1;j<n;j++){            if(arr[j]<arr[i]){                 int temp =arr[j];                  arr[j]=arr[i];             arr[i]=temp;           }           }      }for(int i=0;i<n;i++){       cout<<arr[i]<<" ";    }   return 0; } 2.

How to check if a number is prime in C++ | How to generate Armstrong numbers in C++?

How to check if a number is prime in C++  Prime Numbers Prime numbers are numbers which have only 2 distinct factors i.e 1 and the number itself. Eg. 2,3,5,7,19 etc. Ques1. Write a program to check if a number is prime or not. #include <iostream> #include<cmath> using namespace std; int main() { int n; cin>>n; bool flag=0; for(int i=2;i<=sqrt(n);i++){ if(n%i==0){ cout<<"Non-prime"<<endl; flag=1; break; } } if(flag==0){ cout<<"prime"<<endl; } return 0; } How to generate Armstrong numbers in C++ Armstrong Numbers Armstrong numbers are numbers which have their sum of cube of individual digits equal to the number itself. E.g 153 = 1^3 + 5^3 + 3^3 = 1 + 125 + 27 = 153. #include <iostream> #include<math.h> using namespace std; int main() { int n; cin>>n; int sum=0; int originaln=n; while(n>0){ int lastdigit= n%10; sum+= pow(lastdigit,3); n=n/10; } if(sum==originaln){ cout<<"Armstrong number"...

Loops in C++ : What is loop and types of loop in C++?

 Loops In computer programming, loops are used to   repeat a block of code  . For example, let's say we want to show a message 1000times , Then instead of writing the print statement 1000 times, we can use a loop. Type of loops 1. For loop 2. While loop 3. Do while loop For loop  For loop uses an external variable to control the execution. A for loop takes into account the                                           Initialization Condition checking Incrementation In its syntax itself. The syntax is shown below:- For(initialization;condition;incrememt){ //body } While loop  Imagine we had to print “Hello World” 100 times or n-number of times. Would it be wise to write cout << “Hello World\n” 100  times. While loops help us automate this. Sometimes, the loop also uses an external initialization and incrementation logic to control how many times t...
