Looping statements

Looping statements

used to execute a block of code repeatedly based on a specific condition.

iteration statements

they allow the same code to be executed multiple times in a loop until the condition is satisfied.

Loops

an essential part of programming as they help in reducing code redundancy and automate repetitive tasks.

break and continue

statements that modify the flow of a loop or exit a loop prematurely.

While loop

loops through a block of code as long as a specified condition is true

Do-while loop

a variant of the while loop. This loop will execute the code block once, before checking if the condition is true, then it will repeat the loop as long as the condition is true

For loop

When you know exactly how many times you want to loop through a block of code, use this instead of a while loop

Statement 1

is executed (one time) before the execution of the code block. (FOR LOOP)

Statement 2

defines the condition for executing the code block. (FOR LOOP)

Statement 3

is executed (every time) after the code block has been executed. (FOR LOOP)
