MATLAB - LOOP TYPES

http://www.tutorialspoint.com/matlab/matlab_loops.htm Copyright © tutorialspoint.com

There may be a situation when you need to execute a block of code several number of times. In
general, statements are executed sequentially. The first statement in a function is executed first,
followed by the second, and so on.

Programming languages provide various control structures that allow for more complicated
execution paths.

A loop statement allows us to execute a statement or group of statements multiple times and
following is the general form of a loop statement in most of the programming languages −

MATLAB provides following types of loops to handle looping requirements. Click the following links
to check their detail −

Loop Type Description

Repeats a statement or group of statements while a given


while loop condition is true. It tests the condition before executing the loop
body.

Executes a sequence of statements multiple times and


for loop abbreviates the code that manages the loop variable.

You can use one or more loops inside any another loop.
nested loops

Loop Control Statements


Loop control statements change execution from its normal sequence. When execution leaves a
scope, all automatic objects that were created in that scope are destroyed.

MATLAB supports the following control statements. Click the following links to check their detail.

Control Statement Description


Terminates the loop statement and transfers execution to the
break statement statement immediately following the loop.

Causes the loop to skip the remainder of its body and immediately
continue statement retest its condition prior to reiterating.
