Repeat a loop until a specific condition is met (bet is false).<\/p>\n

Rings are what make computers interesting machines. Suppose you have to print a sentence 50 times on the screen. You can do this 50 times using the print Command (without a ring). How do you want to print a sentence a million times? So you have to use the rings.<\/p>\n

This is just a straightforward example. Here you will learn to use the while and do\u2026 while loops to write interesting programs.<\/p>\n

While loop in Java<\/h2>\n

The structure of the while loop is as follows:<\/p>\n

\n
while (testExpression) {\r\n\r\n\/\/ codes inside body of while loop\r\n\r\n}<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n
How does the while loop work?<\/span><\/h2>\n
The condition in parentheses is a Boolean expression.<\/p>\n
If the condition is actual,<\/p>\n
    \n
  • The expressions are evaluated in the loop body.<\/li>\n
  • Then, the condition is re-evaluated.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
    This process continues until the condition is evaluated incorrectly.<\/p>\n
    If the condition is misjudged,<\/p>\n
      \n
    • The loop ends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Note: i inside the loop will equal 11 after 10 repetitions. Then, the condition i <= 10 is considered false, and the while loop ends.<\/p>\n

          Here, the value of the sum variable is 0, and the initial value of i is 100. In each iteration of the loop, the variable’s value is summed with i (sum + i), and’s valuef i decreases by one until i equals 0. For better visualization,<\/p>\n

          The do\u2026 while loop is similar to the while loop with one key difference.\u00a0The body of the do\u2026 while loop is executed once before the condition is checked.<\/p>\n

          How do the do\u2026 while loops work?<\/span><\/h2>\n
          The body of the do\u2026 while loop is executed once (before checking the condition). The condition is checked in the next series.<\/p>\n
          If the condition is evaluated correctly, the code inside the loop’s body is executed, and the condition is re-evaluated. This process continues until the condition is considered incorrect.<\/p>\n
          When the condition is false, the do\u2026 while loop ends.<\/p>\n

                What is a for loop used for in Java?<\/h3>\n
                \n\n
                A for loop is ideal when you know in advance how many times you want to repeat a block of code \u2014 it sets up initialization, condition, and update in one statement.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                \n
                When should you use a while loop?<\/h3>\n
                \n\n
                Use a while loop when the number of iterations depends on a condition that may change during runtime \u2014 it repeatedly runs as long as the condition remains true.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                \n
                What makes do-while different from while?<\/h3>\n
                \n\n
                In a do-while loop, the code block runs at least once before the condition is checked \u2014 so even if the condition is false at the beginning, the loop body still executes once.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
