What are iteration statements?

An iteration statement, or loop, is a way of repeating a statement, known as loop body, a number of times until some condition is satisfied.

We have following types of iteration statements in C: while loop

do-while loop

for loop

Set of instructions

conditionTrue

False

What are jumping statements?

Jump statements can be used to modify the behavior of conditional and iterative statements.

Some jump statements provided by C are:o continueo breako gotoo return
