Loops

Loops let you run a block of code multiple times without writing it over and over again.

Simple Counter

The loop runs repeatedly as long as its condition is true. It acts like a while loop in other languages.

bamboo count = 1;

loop (count <= 5) {
    echoln("Counter is: " + str(count));
    count++; // Increment the counter
}

// Output:
// Counter is: 1
// Counter is: 2
// Counter is: 3
// Counter is: 4
// Counter is: 5

Counting Even Numbers

The for loop is perfect when you know exactly how many times you want to loop.

IMPORTANT

In TinyPanda, remember to declare your loop variable (bamboo i) before you start the loop!

bamboo i = 1;

echoln("Even numbers up to 10:");

for (i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
    iff (i % 2 == 0) {
        echoln(str(i));
    }
}

// Output:
// Even numbers up to 10:
// 2
// 4
// 6
// 8
// 10
