Loop variant — In computer science, a loop variant is a mathematical function defined on the state space of a computer program having the property that each iteration of a loop (given its invariant) strictly decreases its value with respect to a well founded… … Wikipedia
Loop invariant — In computer science, a loop invariant is an invariant used to prove properties of loops.Specifically in Floyd Hoare logic, the partial correctness of a while loop is governed by the following rule of inference::frac{{Cland I};mathrm{body};{I… … Wikipedia
