Answer 20

True.

Answer 19

False. Although the third clause appears physically at the top of the loop, it isn't executed until the statements in the body of the loop have completedexecution. This is an important point since this clause is typically used to update the control variable, and perhaps other variables as well. If variablesare updated in the third clause and used in the body of the loop, it is important to understand that they do not get updated until the execution of thebody is completed.

Answer 18

False. The value of the second clause is tested when the statement first begins execution, and at the beginning of each iteration thereafter. Therefore,the for loop is an entry condition loop.
