do...while

The do...while statement creates a loop that executes a specified statement until the test condition evaluates to false. The condition is evaluated after executing the statement, resulting in the specified statement executing at least once.

do
   statement
while (condition);

statement

A statement that is executed at least once and is re-executed each time the condition evaluates to true. To execute multiple statements within the loop, use a block statement ({ ... }) to group those statements.

condition

An expression evaluated after each pass through the loop. If condition evaluates to true, the statement is re-executed. When condition evaluates to false, control passes to the statement following the do...while.

In the following example, the do...while loop iterates at least once and reiterates until i is no longer less than 5.

var result = '';
var i = 0;
do {
   i += 1;
   result += i + ' ';
}
while (i > 0 && i < 5);
// Despite i == 0 this will still loop as it starts off without the test

console.log(result);
