Iterating with While Loops
A while loop repeatedly executes a block of code as long as a given boolean condition remains true. It is useful when the number of iterations is not known in advance.

int count = 1;while (count <= 3) {System.out.println("Count: " + count);count++;}
Breakdown
1
int count = 1;
Initializes a counter variable to 1.
2
while (count <= 3)
Checks if count is less than or equal to 3 before each iteration.
3
count++;
Increments the counter by 1 to eventually end the loop.
