  2. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    Because the while loop checks the condition/expression before the block is executed, the control structure is often also known as a pre-test loop. Compare this with the do while loop, which tests the condition/expression after the loop has executed. For example, in the languages C, Java, C#, [2] Objective-C, and C++, (which use the same syntax ...

  3. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    If xxx1 is omitted, we get a loop with the test at the top (a traditional while loop). If xxx2 is omitted, we get a loop with the test at the bottom, equivalent to a do while loop in many languages. If while is omitted, we get an infinite loop. The construction here can be thought of as a do loop with the while check in the middle. Hence this ...

  4. MATLAB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB

    MATLAB does include standard for and while loops, but (as in other similar applications such as APL and R), using the vectorized notation is encouraged and is often faster to execute. The following code, excerpted from the function magic.m , creates a magic square M for odd values of n (MATLAB function meshgrid is used here to generate square ...

  5. Infinite loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

    Infinite loops can be implemented using various control flow constructs. Most commonly, in unstructured programming this is jump back up , while in structured programming this is an indefinite loop (while loop) set to never end, either by omitting the condition or explicitly setting it to true, as while (true) ....

  6. Duff's device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duff's_device

    In the C programming language, Duff's device is a way of manually implementing loop unrolling by interleaving two syntactic constructs of C: the do-while loop and a switch statement. Its discovery is credited to Tom Duff in November 1983, when Duff was working for Lucasfilm and used it to speed up a real-time animation program.

  7. Conditional loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_loop

    However, infinite loops can sometimes be used purposely, often with an exit from the loop built into the loop implementation for every computer language, but many share the same basic structure and/or concept. The While loop and the For loop are the two most common types of conditional loops in most programming languages.

  8. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    In Python 3.x the range() function [28] returns a generator which computes elements of the list on demand. Elements are only generated when they are needed (e.g., when print(r[3]) is evaluated in the following example), so this is an example of lazy or deferred evaluation: >>>

  9. Array programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_programming

    Both MATLAB and GNU Octave natively support linear algebra operations such as matrix multiplication, matrix inversion, and the numerical solution of system of linear equations, even using the Moore–Penrose pseudoinverse. [7] [8] The Nial example of the inner product of two arrays can be implemented using the native matrix multiplication operator.
