Well, the simple answer is yes. Let me simplify it for you at first.. How can you print from 1 to n without using a loop?
By repeating this line 1000 times, Your program works just as efficiently as if you made an iterative loop from 1 to 1000.
cout << x++ << endl;
if(x==n)return 0;
For example, this code can print you numbers from 1 to 10.. You can develop it up to 1000
int n,x=1;
cin >> n; n++;
cout << x++ << endl; // 1
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 2
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 3
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 4
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 5
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 6
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 7
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 8
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 9
if(x==n)return 0;
cout << x++ << endl; // 10
if(x==n)return 0;
Input : 6 Output : 1 2 3 4 5 6
Well here comes the big question.. How do we print an array in reverse without using a loop? Well simply by reading the variables in ascending order and printing them in descending
Here is a small example on 5 variables:
int n; cin >> n; //Number of Elements (Size of the array)
int x1; cin >> x1;
if (n == 1) goto line1;
int x2; cin >> x2;
if (n == 2) goto line2;
int x3; cin >> x3;
if (n == 3) goto line3;
int x4; cin >> x4;
if (n == 4) goto line4;
int x5; cin >> x5;
if (n == 5) goto line5;
line5: cout << x5 << ' ';
line4: cout << x4 << ' ';
line3: cout << x3 << ' ';
line2: cout << x2 << ' ';
line1: cout << x1 << ' ';
Input: 1 2 3 4 5 Output: 5 4 3 2 1
You can do the same thing up to 1000 elements or more..believe it or not, I solved some problems related to Arrays/Loops in this way.. And It Worked (Accepted✅)
