{{body|while ( expression ) { }|While loops test the expression and if true, continuously executes the code provided until the expresion is no longer true. Unlike [[repeat..until]], while loops will not execute at all if the expression evaluates to false.}}

==== Example ====
<pre>
set %Test 1

while %Test < 10
{
;Code between these brackets, gets executed, while %Test is smaller than 10
;When its 10, it wont jump back to first bracket.
set %Test %Test + 1
}
display ok %Test $
halt
</pre>

%Test holds the value of 10. Notice the condition "%Test < 10". If that becomes true, the script wont jump back to while loop start, but continues normally.
