Start an integer value at 1024. Loop while it is greater than 0. Print the value (with a newline) and divide it by two each time through the loop.

6502 Assembly

Code is called as a subroutine (i.e. JSR LoopsWhile). Specific OS/hardware routines for printing are left unimplemented. <lang 6502asm>LoopsWhile: PHA ;push accumulator onto stack

LDA #$00 ;the 6502 is an 8-bit processor STA Ilow ;and so 1024 ($0400) must be stored in two memory locations LDA #$04 STA Ihigh WhileLoop: LDA Ilow BNE NotZero LDA Ihigh BEQ EndLoop NotZero: JSR PrintI ;routine not implemented LSR Ihigh ;shift right ROR Ilow ;rotate right JMP WhileLoop

EndLoop: PLA ;restore accumulator from stack RTS ;return from subroutine</lang>

ActionScript

<lang actionscript>var i:int = 1024; while (i > 0) {

   trace(i);
   i /= 2;

}</lang>

Ada

<lang ada>declare

  I : Integer := 1024;

begin

  while I > 0 loop
     Put_Line(Integer'Image(I));
     I := I / 2;
  end loop;

end;</lang>

AmbientTalk

Note: in AmbientTalk, while:do: is a keyworded message (as in Smalltalk). Both arguments to this message must be blocks (aka anonymous functions or thunks).

<lang ambienttalk> // print 1024 512 etc def i := 1024; while: { i > 0 } do: {

 system.print(" "+i);
 i := i/2;

} </lang>

AmigaE

 WHILE i > 0
   WriteF('\d\n', i)
   i := i / 2
 ENDWHILE

ENDPROC</lang>

AppleScript

AppleScript does not natively support a standard out. Use the Script Editor's Event Log as the output. <lang AppleScript >set i to 1024 repeat while i > 0 log i set i to i / 2 end repeat</lang>

Applesoft BASIC

10 I% = 1024
20  IF I% > 0 THEN  PRINT I%:I% = I% / 2: GOTO 20

</lang>

AutoHotkey

<lang AutoHotkey>i = 1024 While (i > 0) {

 output = %output%`n%i%
 i := Floor(i / 2)

} MsgBox % output</lang>

AWK

<lang awk>BEGIN {

 v = 1024
 while(v > 0) {
   print v
   v = int(v/2)
 }

}</lang>

BASIC

Works with: QuickBasic version 4.5

<lang qbasic>i = 1024 while i > 0

  print i
  i = i / 2

wend</lang>

BBC BASIC

Works with: BBC BASIC for Windows

<lang bbcbasic> i% = 1024

     WHILE i%
       PRINT i%
       i% DIV= 2
     ENDWHILE</lang>

Befunge

Brat

Converts to integers so output is a little bit shorter and neater.

<lang brat>i = 1024 while { i > 0 } {

   p i
   i = (i / 2).to_i

}</lang>

C

<lang c>int i = 1024; while(i > 0) {

 printf("%d\n", i);
 i /= 2;

}</lang> In for loop fashion: <lang c>int i; for(i = 1024;i > 0; i/=2){

  printf("%d\n", i);

}</lang>

C++

<lang cpp>int i = 1024; while(i > 0) {

 std::cout << i << std::endl;
 i /= 2;

}</lang> Alternatively, it can be done with for: <lang cpp>for (int i = 1024; i>0; i /= 2)

 std::cout << i << std::endl;</lang>

Indeed, in C++, <lang cpp>for (init; cond; update)

 statement;</lang>

is equivalent to <lang cpp>{

 init;
 while (cond)
 {
   statement;
   update;
 }

}</lang>

C#

<lang csharp>int i = 1024; while(i > 0){

  System.Console.WriteLine(i);
  i /= 2;

}</lang>

Clojure

<lang lisp>(def i (ref 1024))

(while (> @i 0)

 (println @i)
 (dosync (ref-set i (quot @i 2))))</lang>

2 ways without mutability:

<lang Clojure>(loop [i 1024]

 (when (pos? i)
   (println i)
   (recur (quot i 2))))

(doseq [i (take-while pos? (iterate #(quot % 2) 1024))]

 (println i))</lang>

ColdFusion

Remove the leading space from the line break tag.

With tags: <lang cfm><cfset i = 1024 /> <cfloop condition="i GT 0">

 #i#< br />
 <cfset i /= 2 />

</cfloop></lang> With script: <lang cfm><cfscript>

 i = 1024;
 while( i > 0 )
 {
   writeOutput( i + "< br/ >" );
 }

</cfscript></lang>

Common Lisp

<lang lisp>(setq i 1024) (loop while (> i 0) do

 (print i)
 (setq i (floor i 2)))</lang>

People may think all loops in Dc looks alike. In fact, there aren't loop, but conditional execution in Dc. You expand and execute the content of a register (in here, p) whenever the condition is satisfied. <lang Dc>1024[p2/d0<p]dspx</lang>

Fortran

Works with: Fortran version 90 and later

<lang fortran>INTEGER :: i = 1024 DO WHILE (i > 0)

 WRITE(*,*) i
 i = i / 2

END DO</lang>

Works with: Fortran version 77 and later

<lang fortran> PROGRAM LOOPWHILE

       INTEGER I

C FORTRAN 77 does not have a while loop, so we use GOTO statements C with conditions instead. This is one of two easy ways to do it.

       I = 1024
  10   CONTINUE

C Check condition.

       IF (I .GT. 0) THEN

C Handle I.

         WRITE (*,*) I
         I = I / 2

C Jump back to before the IF block.

         GOTO 10
       ENDIF

C This is an alternative while loop with labels on both ends. This C will use the condition as a break rather than create an entire C IF block. Which you use is up to you, but be aware that you must C use this one if you plan on allowing for breaks.

       I = 1024
  20   CONTINUE

C If condition is false, break.

         IF (I .LE. 0) GOTO 30

C Handle I.

         WRITE (*,*) I
         I = I / 2

C Jump back to the "loop" beginning.

         GOTO 20
  30   CONTINUE

       STOP
     END</lang>

Haskell

<lang haskell>import Control.Monad (when) main = loop 1024

 where loop n = when (n > 0)
                     (do print n
                         loop (n `div` 2))</lang>

You could try to write a "while" that operates on monads:

<lang haskell>import Control.Monad (when)

whileM :: (Monad m) => m Bool -> m a -> m () whileM cond body = do c <- cond

                     when c (body >> whileM cond body)</lang>

You can use it like this

<lang haskell>import Data.IORef

main :: IO () main = do r <- newIORef 1024

         whileM (do n <- readIORef r
                    return (n > 0))
                (do n <- readIORef r
                    print n
                    modifyIORef r (`div` 2))</lang>

J

J is array-oriented, so there is very little need for loops. For example, one could satisfy this task this way:

J does support loops for those times they can't be avoided (just like many languages support gotos for those time they can't be avoided).

<lang j>monad define 1024

 while. 0 < y do.
   smoutput y
   y =. <. -: y 
 end.
 i.0 0

)</lang>

Note: this defines an anonymous function (monad define, and the subsequent lines) and passes it the argument 1024, which means it will be executed as soon as the full definition is available.

Java

<lang java5>int i = 1024; while(i > 0){

  System.out.println(i);
  i >>= 1; //also acceptable: i /= 2;

}</lang> With a for loop: <lang java5>for(int i = 1024; i > 0;i /= 2 /*or i>>= 1*/){

  System.out.println(i);

}</lang>

JavaScript

<lang javascript>var n = 1024; while (n>0) {

print(n);
n/=2;

}</lang>

<lang joy>DEFINE putln == put '\n putch.

LabVIEW

Use Round Towards -Inf to prevent the integer becoming a float.
This image is a VI Snippet, an executable image of LabVIEW code. The LabVIEW version is shown on the top-right hand corner. You can download it, then drag-and-drop it onto the LabVIEW block diagram from a file browser, and it will appear as runnable, editable code.

Liberty BASIC

All integers are changed to floats if an operation creates a non-integer result. Without using int() the program keeps going until erroring because accuracy was lost. <lang lb> i = 1024 while i > 0

  print i
  i = int( i / 2)

wend end </lang>

Lisaac

<lang Lisaac>+ i : INTEGER; i := 1024; { i > 0 }.while_do {

<lang logo>make "n 1024 while [:n > 0] [print :n make "n :n / 2]</lang>

Lua

<lang lua> n = 1024 while n>0 do

 print(n)
 n = math.floor(n/2)

end </lang>

Maple

To avoid generating an infinite sequence (1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, etc.) of fractions after n takes the value 1, we use integer division (iquo) rather than the solidus operation (/). <lang Maple> > n := 1024: while n > 0 do print(n); n := iquo(n,2) end:

</lang>

Mathematica

Mathematica does not support integer-rounding, it would result in getting fractions: 1/2, 1/4 , 1/8 and so on; the loop would take infinite time without using the Floor function: <lang Mathematica>i = 1024; While[i > 0,

Print[i];
i = Floor[i/2];

]</lang>

MATLAB / Octave

In Matlab (like Octave) the math is done floating point, then rounding to integer, so that 1/2 will be always 1 and never 0. A 'floor' is used to round the number. <lang Matlab>i = 1024; while (i > 0)

   disp(i);
   i = floor(i/2);

end</lang>

A vectorized version of the code is

<lang Matlab> printf('%d\n', 2.^[log2(1024):-1:0]); </lang>

Maxima

<lang maxima>block([n], n: 1024, while n > 0 do (print(n), n: quotient(n, 2)));

/* using a C-like loop: divide control variable by two instead of incrementing it */ for n: 1024 next quotient(n, 2) while n > 0 do print(n);</lang>

MAXScript

<lang maxscript>a = 1024 while a > 0 do (

   print a

%-echo:

      @echo $*</lang>

Invoking it <lang make>|make -f while.mk MAX=1024</lang>

Metafont

Metafont has no while loop, but it can be "simulated" easily.

<lang metafont>a := 1024; forever: exitif not (a > 0);

 show a;
 a := a div 2;

endfor</lang>

OCaml

<lang ocaml>let n = ref 1024;; while !n > 0 do

 Printf.printf "%d\n" !n;
 n := !n / 2

But it is more common to write it in a tail-recursive functional style: <lang ocaml>let rec loop n =

 if n > 0 then begin
   Printf.printf "%d\n" n;
   loop (n / 2)
 end

in loop 1024</lang>

Octave

<lang octave>i = 1024; while (i > 0)

endwhile</lang>

The usage of the type int32 is not convenient, since the math is done floating point, then rounding to integer, so that 1/2 will be always 1 and never 0.

Oz

Oz' for-loop can be used in a C-like manner: <lang oz>for I in 1024; I>0; I div 2 do

  {Show I}

end</lang>

Alternatively, we can use the while feature of the for-loop with a mutable variable: <lang oz>declare

 I = {NewCell 1024}

in

 for while:@I > 0 do
    {Show @I}
    I := @I div 2
 end</lang>

Perl

<lang perl>my $n = 1024; while ($n) {

   print "$n\n";
   $n = int $n / 2;

}</lang>

until (condition) is equivalent to while (not condition).

<lang perl>my $n = 1024; until ($n <= 0) {

   print "$n\n";
   $n = int $n / 2;

}</lang>

Perl 6

Here is a straightforward translation of the task description: <lang perl6>my $n = 1024; while $n > 0 { say $n; $n div= 2 }</lang>

The same thing with a C-style loop and a bitwise shift operator: <lang perl6>loop (my $n = 1024; $n > 0; $n +>= 1) { say $n }</lang>

And here's how you'd really write it, using a sequence operator that intuits the division for you:

<lang php>$i = 1024; while ($i > 0) {

  echo "$i\n";
  $i >>= 1;

}</lang>

output is the same as version 2.

Ruby

<lang ruby>i = 1024 while i > 0 do

  puts i
  i /= 2

end</lang> The above can be written in one statement (using the return value of the Kernel#puts method: nil is false), but the readability suffers: <lang ruby>i = 1024 puts i or i /= 2 while i > 0</lang>

until condition is equivalent to while not condition.

<lang ruby>i = 1024 until i <= 0 do

  puts i
  i /= 2

     print (Int.toString n ^ "\n");
     loop (n div 2)

Ursala

Unbounded iteration is expressed with the -> operator. An expression (p-> f) x, where p is a predicate and f is a function, evaluates to x, f(x), or f(f(x)), etc. as far as necessary to falsify p.

Printing an intermediate result on each iteration is a bigger problem because side effects are awkward. Instead, the function g in this example iteratively constructs a list of results, which is displayed on termination.

The argument to g is the unit list <1024>. The predicate p is ~&h, the function that tests whether the head of a list is non-null (equivalent to non-zero). The iterated function f is that which conses the truncated half of the head of its argument with a copy of the whole argument. The main program takes care of list reversal and formatting. <lang Ursala>#import nat

g = ~&h-> ^C/half@h ~&

show+

main = %nP*=tx g <1024></lang> output:

Explicit iteration has its uses but there are always alternatives. The same output is produced by the following main program using bit manipulation. <lang Ursala>main = %nP*=tK33 1024</lang>
