C# Primer Plus

Summary

This chapter explored the fundamental aspects of iteration and how to implement this essential programming tool by using C#'s three types of iteration statements—while, do-while, and for loops.

Important points mentioned in this chapter are reviewed in this section.

Iteration statements are often used to generate or analyze (traverse) a sequence of data elements.
