Summary

In summary,

  • A loop statement is a statement of control flow that executes a statement or a series of statements repeatedly while a specific condition is true.\
  • The while statement is used to repeat a statement or series of statements as long as true is evaluated by a given conditional expression.
  • An iteration is named for any repetition of a looping statement.
  • An infinite loop is a case where the declaration of a loop never ends because the conditional expression is never false.
  • The do/while statement executes a statement or statements once, and then repeats the execution as long as true is determined by a specified conditional expression.
  • The for..in loop is a more concise way of iterating over an object's properties.
