Question

When running a for loop is there any way to make it restart the function. Kind of like a return command.

Answer 1

I meant to say restart the loop. Here is the code I need it for i need it to stop because i only need one solution for each. http://pastebin.com/vA7HeUMi. It is giving me multiple solutions for each. By the way this is Pset2 problem 3

Answer 2

Looks like your pastebin got deleted. Try using dpaste.com as it keeps stuff longer, and doesn't have the annoying ads.

Answer 3

you can try making it recalling the function with a base case and return after that

example

void main()
{
for(int i = 0; ;i ++)
{
printf("waha");
if(i == 10)
{
main();
return;
}

}

}

Answer 4

ok i used dpaste this time. http://dpaste.com/hold/525841/ . I actually deleted the last post on purpose though because it had an infinite loop that i didn't notice. Now I just need it to only give me one answer for each instead of every possible solution. After that I will put a counter in to Keep track of how many in a row it gets.

Answer 5

'continue' should help

Answer 6

I finished my code already what i did is made two separate functions and called one function within another that way I could use return. Have we learned the continue function in this course yet and what does it do?

Answer 7

I'm not really sure about the course, but the continue sends the flow of control to the first line of the loop from anywhere within the loop.

Answer 8

o ok what if your using loops within loops which will it return to?

Answer 9

to the inner one

Answer 10

o then that wouldn't have worked but thanks. continue may come in handy later tho.

Answer 11

In your case I guess you could use a flag mechanism with a break or something like that, as per your requirement.
