What is the working of "for loop" in C programming? |
| Question found in Programming |
 |
|
For Loop is an Iterative statement in the C language and it is usually used in scenarios where the number of repetitive cycles involved in the statement is known beforehand. For loops can also be used in situations where the number of iterations involved can't be predicted but such scenarios are handled more efficiently by looping structures like 'While' . Now about the working of For Loops in C. The syntax of a for loop in c language is : for(counter initialization; conditional checking; action statement) { statements; } and here is a sample statement for(i=1; i<10; i=i+1) { printf("HEHO\n"); } Now let's analyze the sample statement given above. The for(i=1; part of the loop initialises the value of i as 1. Now for the rest of the iterations this part of the statement is not taken in to the action. This part is executed only once. The second part of the loop, i.e. i<10; is a conditional evaluation and the for loop will iterate as long as this condition is TRUE. Since the value inside i at this moment is 1 and it is indeed less than 10, this statement results in a TRUE during the first iteration and because of this the 'statements;' part of the loop inside the curly brackets ({}) i.e. printf("HEHO\n"); is executed. After the execution of this statement the action part of the loop statement is executed i.e. i=i+1). This increments the value of i by 1 and now i will contain 2. Now the program control is passed back to the second part of the loop, i.e. the conditional part and in this iteration too the condition return a TRUE ( since 2<10 is true) and the statements inside {} are executed. then the control is passed back to the action part of the loop statement and the value of i is increased by 1 to make it 3. These steps are repeated until the second part of the loop, i.e. the conditional evaluation returns a FALSE. In this case it returns false when the value of i becomes 10. and when it return false, the program control is passed to the statements coming after the curly brackets({}). The above sample code prints the 'HEHO' nine times. I think that the above explanation will be sufficient for you to grasp the idea of For loops in C language. |

What is the most significant difference between the novel and movie in How To Kill A Mockingbird? |
| Question found in Books & Authors |

She was a prominent character in the book but wasn't there in the movie. 2. The role of Mrs. Dubose is played short in the movie. 3. The scene in which Atticus makes a quote on the topic of courage is entirely missing in the movie. Check out the http://www.echeat.com/essay.php?t=29016 page for an article on this. |

I have heard that you can tell the quality of champagne or sparkling white wine by the size of the bubbles, why is this so? |
| Question found in Wines Of The World |
|
|
It is true that the quality of champagne or sparkling white wine can be measured by the size of the bubbles up to a certain extent. The size of the bubbles is referred by the term "mousse" and typically a very fine mousse indicates a better quality of wine. Small pinhead-size bubbles usually indicate the finest Champagne and wine with heavy or large bubbles are not considered of the highest quality. The heavy or big bubbles are called "oil de crapaud" (Eye of a Toad) in French. Now lets have a brief look at how the size of bubbles can indicate the quality of the wine. The time and effort spent at the fermentation process involved in the making of a wine is a deciding factor in it's quality and this process involved can be identified by the bubbles produced in a particular wine. Wines with little or no distinction are created by a simple carbonation process and this results in the large short lived bubbles. This is because due to the short duration of fermentation not much carbonation is done and so the dissolved amount of carbon dioxide will be very less. If a particular make of wine is treated to a secondary fermentation process in a closed tank, (like Charmat process) it will result in a much better quality of wine. The amount of carbon dioxide dissolved in the wine is much greater in this case as a large amount of this gas is released in the second fermentation and since it is done in a closed tank much of the produced co2 is trapped in the wine. This produces medium sized bubbles and these bubbles are quite persistent. Expensive and high quality wines are produced in a different method and in this method the secondary fermentation is done in the bottle itself. Traditional champagne is made with this process. This is a time taking and expensive process and it results in tiny, very long lasting bubbles. So generally, the finer the bubbles the expensive is the wine. Comments :  The reason I asked was because the last glass of Champagne I had the bubbles where as big as golf balls. Very good answer.Cheers!

In a CSMA/CD environment how many repeaters may be used between end systems? |
| Question found in Computers Advanced |
|
| Since the CSMA/CD protocol requires a low propagation delay in order for working correctly, a optimal amount of repeaters placed between any two network nodes will be 4 or less. If the segment extends too long the propagation delay will increase and this will result in transfer errors. |
