Loop

Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000696

A control flow statement that allows a block of code to be executed repeatedly based on a condition or for a specified number of iterations. Common types include 'for' loops, which iterate a fixed number of times, and 'while' loops, which continue as long as a condition remains true. An infinite loop occurs when the termination condition is never met.
