Python While Loop

While Loop

In Python, a while loop is used to repeatedly execute a block of code as long as a certain condition is true. The break statement is used to exit the loop prematurely based on a certain condition.

Example:

        
# While loop with break
counter = 0

while counter < 5:
    print(f"Counter: {counter}")
    counter += 1

    if counter == 3:
        print("Breaking the loop.")
        break
        
    

In the example above, the while loop continues to execute as long as the counter is less than 5. Inside the loop, the current value of the counter is printed. When the counter reaches 3, the break statement is encountered, and the loop is exited.
