Java™ How To Program (Early Objects), Tenth Edition

Section 5.5 do...while Repetition Statement

• The do...while statement (p. 163) is similar to the while statement. In the while, the program tests the loop-continuation condition at the beginning of the loop, before executing its body; if the condition is false, the body never executes. The do...while statement tests the loop-continuation condition after executing the loop’s body; therefore, the body always executes at least once.
