Lesson 11: While Loops in Farmer

  • Condition: A statement that a program checks to see if it is true or false. If true, an action is taken. Otherwise, the action is ignored.
  • Loop: The action of doing something over and over again.
  • Repeat: Do something again
  • While Loop: A loop that continues to repeat while a condition is true.

Lesson 12: Until Loops in Maze

  • Condition: A statement that a program checks to see if it is true or false. If true, an action is taken. Otherwise, the action is ignored.
  • Conditionals: Statements that only run under certain conditions.
  • Loop: The action of doing something over and over again.
  • Repeat: Do something again
  • Until: A command that tells you to do something only up to the point that something becomes true.
