Statement execution count
Course: AP® Computer Science A Shows up in: Unit 2: Selection and Iteration
The number of times a statement is executed by a program, usually calculated informally by tracing and analyzing the loops.
Appears in the course and exam description (CED): 2.12.A.1
In a loop with n iterations, the body runs n times and the Boolean expression is evaluated n + 1 times. Nested loops with fixed bounds multiply their counts.
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
count++;
}
}
System.out.println(count);Output:
12
