How Can I Use While Loop In Java Script With Examples

In Java Script while loop is a control flow statement that allows code to be executed repeatedly based on a given Boolean condition. The while loop can be thought of as a repeating if statement. today we are going to discuss while loop in java script.

How Can I Use While Loop In Java Script With Examples

The While Loop

The while loop loops through a block of code as long as a specified condition is true.

Syntax

while (condition) {
// code block to be executed
}
 

Example

In the following example, the code in the loop will run, over and over again, as long as a variable (i) is less than 10:

<script>
    var text = "";
    var i = 0;
    while (i < 10) {
        text += "<br>The number is " + i;
        i++;
    }
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>
 

The Do/While Loop

The do/while loop is a variant of the while loop. This loop will execute the code block once, before checking if the condition is true, then it will repeat the loop as long as the condition is true.

Syntax

do {
// code block to be executed
}
while (condition);
 

Example

The example below uses a do/while loop. The loop will always be executed at least once, even if the condition is false, because the code block is executed before the condition is tested:

<script>
    var text = ""
    var i = 0;

    do {
        text += "<br>The number is " + i;
        i++;
    }
    while (i < 10);

    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>
 

Comparing For and While

If you have read the previous chapter, about the for loop, you will discover that a while loop is much the same as a for loop, with statement 1 and statement 3 omitted.

The loop in this example uses a for loop to collect the car names from the lang array:

<script>
    var lang = ["JavaScript", "PHP", "Web", "Python"];
    var i = 0;
    var text = "";
    for (;lang[i];) {
        text += lang[i] + "<br>";
        i++;
    }
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>


The loop in this example uses a while loop to collect the car names from the cars array:

<script>
    var lang = ["JavaScript", "PHP", "Web", "Python"];
    var i = 0;
    var text = "";
    while (lang[i]) {
        text += lang[i] + "<br>";
        i++;
    }
    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = text;
</script>
