The while Loop

Learn about the essential features and usage of 'while' loops for effective iteration in programming.

The while loop keeps iterating over a certain set of operations as long as a certain condition holds True. It operates using the following logic:

While this condition is true, keep the loop running.

Structure

In a for loop, the number of iterations is fixed since we know the size of the sequence. On the other hand, a while loop is not always restricted to a fixed range. Its execution is based solely on the condition associated with it.
