Loop cards are a great game that can be played individually or as a class. They are perfect for review key vocabulary or questions at the end of a topic or when revising for an exam.
Instructions
Cut out the cards from the paper horizontally (but don't cut them in half!) and then shuffle them.
Now start joining each question on the right hand side of the card to the matching answer on the next card.
Carry on until all the cards loop together and you have competed the game!
Hint: Make sure that you set your paper to portrait to print 4 cards per sheet of A4 paper.
A variable utilized in definite iteration that keeps record of the number of times a loop has executed.
Increment
The process of enhancing the value of a variable by a set amount.
Loop
In programming, a control structure enables the recurring execution of a block of code until a specific condition is satisfied.
Definite Iteration
In computer programming, a programming construct is utilized to repetitively execute a block of code for a predetermined number of times.
Control Flow
The order of execution of a program's statements and instructions.
Iteration
Repetition refers to the process of executing a block of code or a set of instructions repeatedly.
Decrement
The process of reducing the value of a variable by a fixed amount.
While Loop
A definite iteration construct is employed as a means of repeating a block of code until a specified condition is no longer true.
For Loop
A common construct used for definite iteration in many programming languages is the ability to execute a block of code repeatedly for a specified number of times.
Nested Loop
A loop inside another loop, often used in a flowchart to indicate more complex algorithms.
