PHP While Loop Statements

A while loop executes a certain block of code until a particular condition is no longer true. Syntax

<?php
while(conditional)
{ 
//code block
}
?>

A while loop says as long as this condition inside the brackets () is true, keep executing the code block inside of {}. Example

<?php
$i=0;
while($i<10)
{
echo $i;
echo "<br>";
echo $i++;
}
?>

Result

Your while loop should have inside it 1) a counter and 2) a way of increasing the counter. Otherwise, your loop will keep repeating forever without a way to end.
