C#.NET Jump Statements
C# provides a jump statements that allow you to jump immediately to another line in a program.
They are:
1. goto
2. break
3. continue
It is used to exit from loops like for, for each, while and do while which will switch the control to the statement immediately after the end of the loop.
They are:
1. goto
2. break
3. continue
goto
It allows you to jump directly to another specified line in the program indicated by a label which is an identifier followed by a semi colon;break
It is used to exit from a case in switch statement.It is used to exit from loops like for, for each, while and do while which will switch the control to the statement immediately after the end of the loop.
continue
This can be used only in loops which will jump the control to the iteration part without executing the statements present after it.C#.NET Do While
Do while loop executes a set of statements inside it atleast once and repeated till the condition is met.
Syntax
Do
{
<statements>
} while(condition);

Not amstrong number because 1^3+2^3+1^3 = 1+8+1= 10.
10 not equal to 121
153
Amstrong number because 1^3+5^3+3^3 = 1+ 125 + 27 =153
153 equal to 153.
C#.NET program to say Armstrong or not
using System;
Explanation: In this program the number entered is stored in a variable num.
The value inside variable num is copied into variable num1 to match the result with this number at the last.
While loop is used to retreive the last number of the given number and to find the cube of that number which are added and stored in variable sum.
After coming out of while loop the value in sum and num1 is matched to know wheather the given number is amstrong or not.
If they are matched the value given is amstrong otherwise not.

num
= Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
num1

while (num > 0)
{
q = num / 10;
temp = num % 10;
sum = sum + (temp * temp * temp);
num = q;
}
if (sum == num1)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} is Armstrong ");//153
}
else

C#.NET foreach loop
foreach loop is a special loop used for collections and arrays. It is repeated based on the number of elements in a collection. It automatically takes one by one element from a collection and it is repeated till the last element is printed.
Syntax for C# foreach loop
foreach(type variable in collect:ion/array)
{
statements
}
Example program using C# foreach loop

C#.NET program to print how many times a character is present in a string
Output
3
Explanation
above program contains a string variable s which contain "arshadmohammod"
In the above string a is repeated 3 times arshadmohammod
That string is divided into an array of characters using method ToCharArray( ) . -
char[ ] c = s.ToCharArray( );
count is a variable of int type intialized with zero used to count no of a's repeated in the string.
using for each loop all elements in char array are stored into ch one by one and repeatedly checked using if condition.
if (ch == 'a')
{
count++;
}
if element matched with a then count is incremented by one.
after the foreach loop the number in count variable is printed as output.
Syntax for C# foreach loop
foreach(type variable in collect:ion/array)
{
statements
}
Example program using C# foreach loop
Program
using System;
namespace loops
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int[] i = new int[3] { 7, 8, 9 };

C#.NET for loop
C#.NET for loop is used to execute a code repeatedly until the condition is true. For loops are appropriate when you know exactly how many times you want to perform the statements within the loop. Normally, for loop statements execute from the opening curly brace to the closing curly brace without interruption. Every for loop can contain three sections commonly.
Those sections are
Initialization: Which sets the starting point of the loop.
Condition: Once the initializer list has been evaluated, the for loop gives control to its second section, ie.,the boolean expression. The code is executed until the condition satisfied ie.,until it returns true value.
Iteration(Increment/Decrement): Once Condition has been evaluated, the for loop gives to its control to third section ie.,Iteration, Which takes to the next side either positive or negative direction. Sometimes it will be incremented, sometimes decremented depending on the situation.
Syntax for C#.NET for loop
for(initialize; condition; inc/dec)
{
statements
}

C#.NET Conditional Looping
C#.NET provides four different loops that allows you to execute a block of code repeatedly until a certain condition is met.
Those are as follows
1) for loop
2) while loop
3) dowhile loop
4) foreach loop
Those are as follows
1) for loop
2) while loop
3) dowhile loop
4) foreach loop
C#.NET Switch
The switch statement which allows you to compare an expression with a number of different values.
Syntax of C#.NET Switch statement
switch(variable)
{
case value1:
statements;
break;
case value2:
statements;
break;
-------------------
-------------------
-------------------
default:
statements;
break;
Example program using C#.NET switch statement
Program
Syntax of C#.NET Switch statement
switch(variable)
{
case value1:
statements;
break;
case value2:
statements;
break;
-------------------
-------------------
-------------------
default:
statements;
break;
Example program using C#.NET switch statement
Program
using System;
namespace Switch
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter number");
int no = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
switch (no)
{
case 1:
Console.WriteLine("One");
break;
case 2:
Console.WriteLine("Two");
break;
default:
Console.WriteLine("Invalid");
break;
}
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
Output
Enter number
1
One
Output
Enter number
2
Two
Output
Enter number
12
Invalid
Explanation
In the above example we can give input is 1 it prints output as One, input is 2 print output as Two, if we can give input is any number except 1 and 2 the output prints Invalid because if we can give input is 1 compiler executes case1 and we give i/p is 2 executes case2 then print output as One and Two. We give any other number except 1 and 2 default case will execute and prints Invalid.
Example program for C#.NET switch statement
Program
using System;
namespace Switch2
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int i = 4;
switch (i)
{
case 1:
case 2:
case 3:
Console.WriteLine("One");
break;
case 4:
case 5:
Console.WriteLine("Two");
goto case 1;
default:
Console.WriteLine("Invalid");
break;
}
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
}
Output
Two
One
Explanation
In the above example we can assign i value as 4. So directly case 4 is executed and print output is Two, next no break statement is available. instead of break we write goto statement as goto case1,then after the execution go and starts from case1 then the output one will be printed. Finally the output will be Two and One printed line by line.
