JS Loop While

← Previous Next →

📘 JavaScript while Loop – Repeat While a Condition is True

The while loop continues to execute a block of code as long as the specified condition evaluates to true.

🔹 Syntax

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

  • condition is evaluated before each iteration.

  • If it returns true, the code inside the loop runs.

  • When the condition becomes false, the loop stops.

🔹 Basic Example

let i = 1;

while (i <= 5) {
  console.log(i);
  i++;
}
// Output: 1 2 3 4 5

🔹 Infinite Loop Warning

If you forget to update the loop variable (like i++), the condition may never become false, causing an infinite loop.

let i = 1;

while (i <= 5) {
  console.log(i);
  // missing i++
}

🚨 Always ensure your loop has a way to exit.

🔹 Using break and continue

let i = 1;

while (i <= 5) {
  if (i === 3) {
    i++;
    continue;
  }
  console.log(i);
  i++;
}
// Output: 1 2 4 5

let j = 1;

while (j <= 5) {
  if (j === 4) break;
  console.log(j);
  j++;
}
// Output: 1 2 3
