Programming in LabVIEW MathScript-Simple While Loop Exercises

Module by: Anthony Antonacci, Darryl Morrell Based on: Programming in MATLAB-Simple While Loop Exercises by Darryl Morrell

Summary: This module provides several simple exercises designed to test and increase your understanding of while loops in LabVIEW MathScript.

Some While Loop Exercises

Problem 1
How many times will this loop print 'Hello World'? 
n = 10;
while n > 0
    disp('Hello World')
    n = n - 1;
end
[ Click for Solution 1 ]
Solution 1
10 times.
[ Hide Solution 1 ]
Problem 2
How many times will this loop print 'Hello World'? 
n = 1;
while n > 0
    disp('Hello World')
    n = n + 1;
end
[ Click for Solution 2 ]
Solution 2
This loop will continue to print 'Hello World' until the user stops the program. You can stop a program by holding down the 'Ctrl' key and simultaneously pressing the 'c' key.

Problem 3
What values will the following LABVIEW MATHSCRIPT code print? 
a = 1
while a < 100
    a = a*2
end
[ Click for Solution 3 ]
Solution 3 
a =
     1
a =
     2
a =
     4
a =
     8
a =
    16
a =
    32
a =
    64
a =
   128

Problem 4
What values will the following LABVIEW MATHSCRIPT code print? 
a = 1;
n = 1;
while a < 100
    a = a*n
    n = n + 1;
end
[ Click for Solution 4 ]
Solution 4 
a =
     1
a =
     2
a =
     6
a =
    24
a =
   120
