Iteration Statement Part 3 (Nested loop statement)
Objectives: 1. Demonstrate nested loops operation
2. Create a C++ program using nested loop
Materials: Computer & C/C++ programming language software tool
Nested Loops Program logic gets more complicated when you must use loops
within loops, or nested loops. When one loop appears inside another, the loop
that contains the other loop is called the outer loop, and the loop that is
contained is called the inner loop. You need to create nested loops when the
values of two or more variables repeat to produce every combination of values.
Usually, when you create nested loops, each loop has its own loop control
variable.
A loop can be nested inside of another loop. C++ allows at least 256 levels of
nesting.
The syntax for a nested for loop statement in C++ is as follows −
for ( init; condition; increment ) {
for ( init; condition; increment ) {
statement(s);
statement(s); // you can put more statements.
The syntax for a nested while loop statement in C++ is as follows −
while(condition) {
while(condition) {
statement(s);
}

statement(s); // you can put more statements.
The syntax for a nested do...while loop statement in C++ is as follows −
do {
statement(s); // you can put more statements.
do {
statement(s);
} while( condition );
} while( condition );
Procedure:
1. Let's have a look at the following code below
2. #include <iostream>
3. using namespace std;
4.
5. int main () {
6. int i, j;
7.
8. for(i = 2; i<100; i++) {
9. for(j = 2; j <= (i/j); j++)
10. if(!(i%j)) break; // if factor found, not prime
11. if(j > (i/j)) cout << i << " is prime\n";
12. }
13.
14. return 0;
15. }

4. Write a program in C++ to print a square pattern with # character.
Sample Output:
Print a pattern like square with # character:
--------------------------------------------------
Input the number of characters for a side: 4

5. Write a program in C++ to display the pattern like right triangle using an asterisk.
Sample Output:
Input number of rows: 5
*
**
***
****

6. Write a program in C++ to make such a pattern like a pyramid using number
and a number will repeat for a row.
Sample Output:
Input number of rows: 5
