Loops
Learn about loops in this lesson.
We'll cover the following
In this lesson, we’ll explore the various looping constructs available in Solidity, which enable us to efficiently carry out repetitive tasks within our smart contracts. Loops are crucial tools for executing specific actions multiple times, optimizing code, and reducing redundancy. Solidity offers different types of loops, each serving unique purposes and scenarios.
The following loops are supported by Solidity:
while
do-while
for
Let’s explore examples of each loop type implemented in Solidity contracts.
The while
loop
The while
loop is a fundamental looping construct in Solidity. It repeatedly executes a block of statements as long as a specified condition remains true. Once the condition evaluates to false, the loop concludes. The while
loop is particularly useful when we need to perform a set of instructions until a specific condition is met. Its syntax is as follows:
