Chapter 6 - Iteration. In this chapter we will: discuss the use of repetition (iteration) in programming algorithms; describe the Java while, for, and do-while statements; demonstrate the use of loop invariants to verify the correctness of loops; show the use of loops in data entry and computer animation. | Chapter 6 Iteration Lecture Slides to Accompany An Introduction to Computer Science Using Java (2nd Edition) by .
