The do Keyword
Keywords
are special symbols in the Java programming language, which are reserved for a
Java program.
The
do is a Java keyword, that may not be used as identifiers i.e. you
cannot declare a variable or class with this name in your Java program. This
keyword is used in control statement to declare a loop. It provides a repetitive
task as long as the condition specified with the while
keyword
is true;
then it
exits from the loop when the specified condition is
founded as false.
The
syntax of do loop is written as:
do{ statement; } |
do { i++; } while ( i < maxNum ); |
The
do loop block is always executed once whether the condition specified
with the while
keyword
is true or false.
