This document introduces different types of programming loops in C including for, while, do-while, and nested loops. It explains that loops repeat execution of statements and lists the components of a for loop as an initializer, condition, and increment. While and do-while loops are described as having only a condition that is tested before or after each iteration, respectively. Nesting of for loops is defined as having one for loop within another and an example is provided to print a triangle pattern using nested for loops.
