Snippet
Iterating with While Loops
A while loop continues to execute as long as its condition is true. It is useful when the number of repetitions depends on a dynamic state.

int energy = 3;while (energy > 0) {energy--;}
Breakdown
1
while (energy > 0) {
Evaluates the condition; if energy is greater than 0, the code block inside is executed.
2
energy--;
Decrements the energy variable by 1 in each iteration to eventually stop the loop.
