FOR or WHILE loop

Each implicit block represents a branch.

Since the sum of all possible decision paths includes implicit blocks as well as simple
blocks, reports provide the total number of simple and implicit blocks as a figure and
a percentage after the term decisions.

Loops (Logical Blocks)

Three branches are created in a FOR or WHILE loop:

The first branch is the simple block contained within the loop, and that is
executed zero times (the entry condition is false from the start).

The second branch is the simple block executed exactly once (entry condition
true, then false the next time).

The third branch is the simple block executed at least twice (entry condition true
at least twice, and false at the end).

Two branches are created in a DO/WHILE loop, as the output condition is tested
after the block has been executed:

The first branch is the simple block executed exactly once (output condition
false the first time).

The second branch is the simple block executed at least twice (output condition
false at least once, then true at the end).

Example

public class LogicalBlocks
{
public static int tryFiveTimes()
{
int result, i=0;
while ( ( ( result=resourcesAvailable() )<= 0)
&& ( ++i < 5 ) );
