 | |
| ## While Loops
 | |
| A `while` loop executes statements within the loop as long as the loops condition is met. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Syntax:
 | |
| ```php
 | |
| <?php
 | |
| $x = 0;
 | |
| while ($x < 11) {
 | |
|     statement1;
 | |
|     $x++;
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Note:** The block code must have a statement that changes or increments the condition.  Otherwise an infinite loop could result.
