68 | <p>The <code>do</code>–<code>while</code> statement is a simple loop construct that
|
---|
69 | performs the test at the end of the iteration.
|
---|
70 | </p>
|
---|
71 | <div class="example">
|
---|
72 | <pre class="example">do
|
---|
73 | <var>body</var>
|
---|
74 | while (<var>test</var>);
|
---|
75 | </pre></div>
|
---|
76 |
|
---|
77 | <p>Here, <var>body</var> is a statement (possibly a block) to repeat, and
|
---|
78 | <var>test</var> is an expression that controls whether to repeat it again.
|
---|
79 | </p>
|
---|
80 | <p>Each iteration of the loop starts by executing <var>body</var>. Then it
|
---|
81 | computes <var>test</var> and, if it is true (nonzero), that means to go
|
---|
82 | back and start over with <var>body</var>. If <var>test</var> is false (zero),
|
---|
83 | then the loop stops repeating and execution moves on past it.
