I get a lot of questions about loops and else/if statements, the different kinds, when to use, and how they work, this is an attempt to try to demistify this topic.

• Here are two of Trevor’s videos in our course work covering that topic, if, and Else_if, and his videos on For_Loops, and While_Loops.

• Here is also a good YouTube video from Alex Lee (He has some great coding tutorials) on that topic.

• Another great YouTube, only about 11 minutes long and covers:
  • While
  • Do While
  • For Loops
• Yet another YouTube that’s pretty in depth, fair warning, it’s a bit dry, and a little long, but covers:
  • While Loop
  • Do While Loop
  • For Loop
  • Enhanced For Loop
  • Nested For Loop

  ### This webpage has a bunch of loop questions, and the coded answers, there is one that is basically the blueprint for assignment 2.

  ### This webpage has great explanations and breakdowns of why loops are used and when to use them, as well as an area to play with pre-built code and practice, as well as some great graphics showing the flow of the code.

  ### And a webpage for practicing you conditional statements with questions, and coded answers.

  ## Don’t be afraid to ask Chat GPT questions, have it explain things to you, and make you practice problems, etc. ### Example input to Chat GPT: “Can you explain while loops in java to me, I am a beginner”. # USING THE DEBUGGER WILL SAVE YOU A TON OF HEADACHE WHEN IT COMES TO THESE TOPICS!
