loops

Overview:

It is possible to create both for style and while loops in Niv using these 2 methods:

// either create a normal while loop

while true
{
    // runs forever
}

set ans ""
while [cal $ans ! "exit"]
{
    set ans [input "Enter your input:> "]
}


// or create a for loop

set i 0
while [cal $i < 10]
{
    // runs 10 times
    print "i - {}\n" $i
    op i + 1
}

---

while

usage example:

// template
while statement

// specific use
while [cal 5 > 10]

Args:

• statement: BOOL

Desc:

Loops the provided scope as long as statement is true. As with those in ifs, the curly brackets are sensitive to their placement in the code.

Return value: VOID.
