1) True/False: The increment and decrement operators can be used in mathematical expressions; however, they cannot be used in relational expressions.

2) True/False: A while loop's body can contain multiple statements, as long as they are enclosed in braces.

3) True/False: A while loop is somewhat limited, because the counter can only be incremented by one each time through the loop.

4) True/False: An initialization expression may be omitted from the for loop if no initialization is required.

5) True/False: The scope of a variable declared in a for loop's initialization expression always extends beyond the body of the loop.

6) True/False: If you want to stop a loop before it goes through all its iterations, the break statement may be used.

7) True/False: You may not use the break and continue statements within the same set of nested loops.

8) True/False: The condition that is tested by a while loop must be enclosed in parentheses and terminated with a semicolon.

9) True/False: The update expression of a for loop can contain more than one statement, e.g. counter++, total+= sales.

10) True/False: Multiple relational expressions cannot be placed into the test condition of a for loop.

11) True/False: You may nest while and do-while loops, but you may not nest for loops.

12) True/False: You may not use the break statement in a nested loop.

13) True/False: An output file is a file that data is written to.

15) True/False: In C++ 11 you can pass a string object as argument to a file stream object's open member function.
