An infinite loop (also known as an endless loop or unproductive loop or a continuous loop) is a loop which never ends. Inside loop, statements are repeated forever.
while true do
begin
end;
repeat
until false;
Break
statement
"While
true
do
" or "repeat
until
false
" loops looks infinite at first glance,
but there may be a way to escape the loop through break
.
var
i:integer;
begin
i := 0;
while true do
begin
i := i + 1;
if i = 100 then break;
end;
end;
var
i:integer;
begin
i := 0;
repeat
i := i + 1;
if i = 100 then break;
until false;
end;
