How to write a while statement in c? - c

Question

I should write a C while statement that continues while x is both larger than 10 and a multiple of either 6 or 7. I only need to include the actual while statement, not the entire loop!
I know it may look funny to you, but this is what I have so far.
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int x;
while (x > 10, x % 7 = 0 || x % 6 = 0) {
printf("%d\n", x);
}
}

Answer 1

Logical and is &&. As an operator, , is "ignore the result of the thing to the left".

Answer 2

Your Boolean logic and comparison both use the wrong syntax. It should be like this:
while (x > 10 && (x % 7 == 0 || x % 6 == 0)) {
The comma (,) is not a valid Boolean operator. What you wanted is && (logical AND). You need parentheses around the other two expressions because AND (&&) has higher precedence than OR (||).
And = is for setting values; == is for comparing them.
Finally, as others pointed out, you don't set x anywhere in the code that you have posted. So, your loop will not run. And you don't modify x in the loop, so, if you ever get into the loop, you will never get out.

Answer 3

The program can look like
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void )
{
int x;
printf( "Enter an integer number: " );
scanf( "%d", &x );
while ( x > 10 && ( x % 7 == 0 || x % 6 == 0 ) )
{
printf( "%d\n", x );
printf( "Enter next integer number: " );
scanf( "%d", &x );
}
}
Or you could enlarge the condition in the while loop the following way (to check that the input is correct)
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void )
{
int x;
printf( "Enter an integer number: " );
while ( scanf( "%d", &x ) == 1 && x > 10 && ( x % 7 == 0 || x % 6 == 0 ) )
{
printf( "%d\n", x );
printf( "Enter next integer number: " );
}
}
As for your condition in the while loop then it has two errors
while (x > 10, x % 7 = 0 || x % 6 = 0)
It uses the comma operator instead of logical operator && and it uses the assignment operator as for example x % 7 = 0 instead of the comparison operator x % 7 == 0. Also variable x was not initialized.

Answer 4

Your while statement should read
while (x > 10 && (x % 7 == 0 || x % 6 == 0))
Note the use of && for "boolean and", and == for "equality comparison".

Answer 5

I should Write a C while statement that continues while x is both
larger than 10 and a multiple of either 6 or 7. I Only need to include
the actual while statement, not the entire loop!
Let's analyze the condition that will go in the while() statement:
x is both larger than 10 and a multiple of either 6 or 7
Can be expressed as
x is greater than 10 AND a multiple of 6 OR multiple of 7
So let's code that in C:
x is greater than 10
x>10
AND
&&
x multiple of 6 OR x multiple of 7
(x%6)==0 || (x%7)==0
Then, all together
x>10 && ( (x%6)==0 || (x%7)==0 )
So your while sentence is like this:
while (x>10 && ( (x%6)==0 || (x%7)==0 ))
{
stuff...
}

Answer 6

Here can be the Solution Ava
while (x > 10 && (x % 7 == 0 || x % 6 == 0)) {
