Learning to Program with the Cybiko Handheld Computer Using B2C

Chapter 11 : While

The While command is another type of looping command. Like the For command, While executes until a condition is met. Here is the form of the While command:

while [conditional] 'things to do wend dim a as int a=1 while a<10 print "a=", a a=a+1 wend

The Wend command ends a while loop.

This example program plays "Hi/Low" – a number game where the user has to guess the computer's random number

'Hi Low Number Guesser
dim guess as int
dim tries as int
dim number as int
tries=0
number = rnd(100)+1
while(guess <> number)
    print "enter your guess"
    input guess
    if guess < number then
        print guess, " is too low"
        tries=tries+1
    elseif guess > number then
        print guess, " is too high"
        tries=tries+1
    end if
wend  
print "You guessed it."
print "The number was ", number
print "It took you ", tries, " tries"
