===The While Loop===

The general form of the while loop is:

''while (condition) statement;''

where statement can be a single statement or a block of statements, and ''condition'' defines the condition that controls the loop, and it may be any valid boolean expression. The ''statement ''is performed while the ''condition ''is true. When the ''condition ''becomes false, program control passes to the line immediately following the loop.

Here is a simple example for while loop

{| class="tableintopic" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="590" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#C0C0C0"
|- align="left" valign="top"
| width="590" bgcolor="#C0C0C0" |
{

number i = 1;

while (i<6)

{

print(i);

i = i + 1;

}

print("Counting completed.");

}

The output from the script is shown here:

{| class="tableintopic" style="border-collapse: collapse" width="590" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#C0C0C0"
|- align="left" valign="top"
| width="590" bgcolor="#C0C0C0" |
