'''while Loop Statement'''�
The condition/expression is evaluated, and if the condition/expression is true,<br>the code within … the block is executed. �
This repeats until the condition/expression becomes FALSE.<br>Reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop�
Example:��
<span style="font-family:courier">answer=10<br>read –p “pick a number between 1 and 10: “ guess<br>while test $guess –eq 10<br>do read –p “Try again: “ guess<br>done<br>echo “You are correct”</span><br><br>
