Here is an example of calculating scalar product of two vectors, using the while statement:

s = 0

i = 0

while i < n

s = s + a[i] * b[i]

i = i + 1

wend

Probably the easiest way to create an endless loop is to use the statement:

while TRUE

‘ ...

wend

Do Statement

The do statement executes until the condition becomes true. The syntax of the do statement is:

statements

loop until expression

statements are executed repeatedly until expression evaluates true. expression is evaluated after each iteration,

so the loop will execute statements at least once.

s = s + a[i] * b[i]

i = i + 1
