// 1: WHAT IS A WHILE LOOP?

// while (condition) {

// // code to be executed

// }

// let count = 1;

// while (count <= 5) {

// console.log("Count is: " + count);

// count++;

// }

// Count is: 1

// Count is: 2

// Count is: 3

// Count is: 4

// Count is: 5

// 2: WHILE VS FOR LOOP

// let password = "";

// while (password !== "javascript123") {

// password = prompt("Enter the password:");

// }

// console.log("Access granted!");

// 3: COMMON PATTERNS & EXAMPLES

// Example 1: Reading through data until a condition is met

// let numbers = [3, 7, 2, 9, 1, 5];

// let index = 0;

// while (index < numbers.length && numbers[index] !== 9) {

// console.log("Current number: " + numbers[index]);

// index++;

// }

// console.log("Found 9 at index: " + index);

// Example 2: Countdown timer

// let seconds = 5;

// while (seconds > 0) {

// console.log("Time remaining: " + seconds + " seconds");

// seconds--;

// }

// console.log("Time's up!");

// Example 3: Processing until a flag changes

// let dataProcessed = false;

// let attempts = 0;

// while (!dataProcessed && attempts < 10) {

// console.log("Processing attempt: " + (attempts + 1));

// // Simulate some processing

// if (Math.random() > 0.7) {

// dataProcessed = true;

// console.log("Data processed successfully!");

// }

// attempts++;

// }

// if (!dataProcessed) {

// console.log("Failed to process data after 10 attempts");

// }

// 4: COMMON PITFALLS

// let i = 1;

// while (i <= 5) {

// console.log(i);

// // Oops! Forgot to increment i

// }

// let x = 0;

// while (x = 5) { // Should be x !== 5 or x < 5

// console.log(x);

// x++;

// }

// 5: PRACTICAL EXERCISE

let randomNumber = 0;

let attempts = 0;

while (randomNumber !== 7) {

randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1;

attempts++;

console.log("Attempt " + attempts + ": Generated " + randomNumber);

}

console.log("Finally got 7 after " + attempts + " attempts!");

// 6: CONCLUSION
