>Actually, C's "for" can be duplicated EXACTLY by C's "do ... while" loops.
I suspect you're going to get an awful lot of flames for saying this. What
about
for(i=0; i<=j; i++)
printf("%d\n",i);
Since a do-while loop has the test condition at the termination of the loop,
it is not possible to produce an equivalent do-while version, for the
behavior will differ if j is less than 0.
