While Loop

while (condition) {
​ ​ ​ \\Do something
}

Loop as long as the condition is true, when

it becomes false it exits

Do-While Loop

do {
​ ​ ​ \\Do something
} while (condition);

Loop as long as the condition is true, when

it becomes false it exits

For Loop

for (initialize; condition; update ) {

​ ​ ​ \\Do something
}
example:
for (int i=0; i<10; i++) {
​ ​ ​ \\Do something
}

Loop as long as the condition is true, when

it becomes false it exits
