In PHP, the while
loop is used to repeatedly execute a block of code as long as a particular condition is true. The syntax for using the while
loop in PHP is as follows:
1 2 3 |
while (condition) { // code to be executed } |
The condition
is evaluated at the beginning of each iteration of the loop, and if it is true, the block of code within the loop is executed. The loop will continue to iterate until the condition
is no longer true.
Here is an example of using the while
loop in PHP to print the numbers from 1 to 5:
1 2 3 4 5 6 |
$num = 1; while ($num <= 5) { echo $num . " "; $num++; } |
In this example, the $num
variable is initialized to 1, and the loop will continue to execute as long as $num
is less than or equal to 5. The echo
statement within the loop will print the value of $num
, followed by a space. Finally, the $num
variable is incremented by 1 at the end of each iteration of the loop.
The output of this code will be:
1
