the condition here is implicit.
C considers as true every integer not null.
the ++i syntax is applied before the condition is evaluated
Therefore the program run as follows:
-
start:
i=5 -
first loop
condition (++i
) => i=6
- second loop
iteration operation (i-=3
) => i=3
condition (++i
) => i=4
i is evaluated to true
- third loop
iteration operation (i-=3
) => i=1
condition (++i
) => i=2
i is evaluated to true
- “fourth loop”
iteration operation (i-=3
) => i=-1
condition (++i
) => i=0
i is evaluated to false
- end
