count is 0 count is 1 count is 2 count is 3 count is 4 Done with the loop
Here is a complete program that lets the user pick the initial value and the limit value:
import java.io.*; // User picks starting and ending value class loopExample { public static void main (String[] args ) throws IOException { BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String inputData; int count, limit; System.out.println( "Enter initial value:" ); inputData = stdin.readLine(); count = Integer.parseInt( inputData ); System.out.println( "Enter limit value:" ); inputData = stdin.readLine(); limit = Integer.parseInt( inputData ); while ( count <= limit ) // less-than-or-equal operator { System.out.println( "count is:" + count ); count = count + 1; } System.out.println( "Done with the loop" ); } }
Of course, you will want to copy this into NotePad and run this in the usual way.
