   REPEAT UNTIL LOOPS in PlayBasic


 In PlayBasic, the Repeat/Until control structure allows you to repeatedly execute a block of code until a certain condition is met. The syntax for the Repeat/Until structure is as follows:


Repeat
  ' code to be executed repeatedly
Until condition



 The code block between Repeat and Until will be executed repeatedly until the condition is met. When the condition is met, the loop will exit and control will be passed to the next line of code after the Until statement.

 Here is an example of a Repeat/Until loop in PlayBasic:

PlayBasic Code:
x = 0

Repeat
   x = x + 1
   Print x
Until x = 10

Print "Loop complete"
sync
waitkey

COMMANDS USED: PRINT | SYNC | WAITKEY |


 In this example, the loop will repeat 10 times, printing the value of x each time. When x reaches 10, the Until condition will be met and the loop will exit. The message "Loop complete" will then be printed.

 While / EndWhile Control Structures In PlayBasic


    In PlayBasic, the While/EndWhile control structure allows you to repeatedly execute a block of code as long as a certain condition is met. The syntax for the While/EndWhile structure is as follows:


While condition
  ' code to be executed repeatedly
EndWhile


   The code block between While and EndWhile will be executed repeatedly as long as the condition is met. When the condition is no longer met, the loop will exit and control will be passed to the next line of code after the EndWhile statement.

   Here is an example of a While/EndWhile loop in PlayBasic:

PlayBasic Code:
x = 0

While x < 10
   x = x + 1
   Print x
EndWhile

Print "Loop complete"
sync
waitkey

COMMANDS USED: PRINT | SYNC | WAITKEY |


  In this example, the loop will repeat until x is no longer less than 10. The loop will print the value of x each time it is executed, and when x reaches 10 the While condition will no longer be met and the loop will exit. The message "Loop complete" will then be printed.
