Java loops repeat a block of code until a certain condition is met. 
# The while loop
Syntax of the `while` loop:

```java
while (condition)
{
  Statement1;
  Statement2;
}
```



The code inside the `while` loop will be executed as long as the condition is true. Once the condition becomes `False`, the code inside the loop will stop executing, and the program will continue with the following line of code after the loop. It is important to note that the condition is checked before the code inside the loop is executed.

# The do-while loop
The `do-while` loop is a control flow statement that allows code to be executed repeatedly based on a given condition. 

**Syntax of the do-while loop:**

```java
do
{
  Statement1;
  Statement2;
}
while (condition);
```


The code block in a `do-while` loop will execute first, and then the condition will be checked. If the condition evaluates to `True`, the code block will execute again. If the condition is `False`, the code block will never be executed.


## Difference between the do-while loop and the while loop
A `do-while` loop allows code to be executed repeatedly based on a given condition. The condition is evaluated after the code block is executed, and the `while` loop checks the condition before the code block is executed. If the condition is `False`, the code block will never be executed.

**Example of the do-while loop:**

# The for loop
A `for` loop is a type of loop that helps you to execute a given set of commands multiple times. The number of times the commands repeat depends on the number you use as the parameter for the `for` loop.

**Syntax of the for loop:**

```java
for(initialization; condition; incr/decr){
  //code to be executed
}
```


Here, the initialization expression is executed only once. The condition is evaluated before each iteration. If the condition evaluates to `True`, the code inside the for loop is executed. After the code inside the for loop is executed, the increment expression is executed. The `for` loop can have an optional label that you can use to break or continue the loop.

The advantage of the `for` loop is that it can help you save time by automatically running a set of commands.

**Example for the for loop:**

# Infinite loop

An infinite loop is an instruction sequence that loops endlessly when a terminating condition isn't met.

Java will run the above loop for ___ times. 

You will be introduced to the basic concepts of Java. You will learn how to write code and run it. Gradually you will be able to increase the complexity of your application. You will add variables, if-else statements, loops, and arrays to your codes. Finally, you will learn to write complete methods to solve a particular problem. 

Java is all about object-oriented programming.  However, object-oriented programming comes with several complex concepts, such as abstraction, encapsulation, polymorphism, and inheritance. This section is to take you through these concepts. 

In this section, we continue learning Java OOP.

The potential of Java is enormous. In this section, we will glance at various levels of use cases of Java. You will be introduced to Lists, file handling, multithreading, regular expressions, socket programming, and more. Covering all of these requires a course of its own. However, this section will prepare you for further studies. 

In this section, we continue learning Java Advanced.
