title: Loops
---
Allow the repetition of a group of instructions according to a computation.
Every loop body defines its hierarchy level, from the local variables' point of
view.
### WHILE
{{< fatecode >}}(while [BOOL] [I0 = INSTRUCTION] ... [IM = INSTRUCTION]){{< /fatecode >}}
Executes `[I0]` ... `[IM]` if, and as long as, `[BOOL]` yields true.
### DO WHILE
{{< fatecode >}}(do_while [BOOL] [I0 = INSTRUCTION] ... [IM = INSTRUCTION]){{< /fatecode >}}
Executes `[I0]` ... `[IM]`, and does so again as long as, `[BOOL]` yields
true.
### FOR
{{< fatecode >}}(for [PRE = INSTRUCTION] [BOOL] [POST = INSTRUCTION] [I0 = INSTRUCTION] ... [IM = INSTRUCTION]){{< /fatecode >}}
Executes `[PRE]`, then, if and as long as `[BOOL]` yields true, executes
`[I0]` ... `[IM]` followed by `[POST]`.
### FOR EACH
{{< fatecode >}}(foreach [COLLECTION] {String} [I0 = INSTRUCTION] ... [IM = INSTRUCTION]){{< /fatecode >}}
Executes `[I0]` ... `[IM]` for each member of `[COLLECTION]`, in order. The current
member is stored in a new local variable named `{String}`.
### BREAK
{{< fatecode >}}(break!){{< /fatecode >}}
Exits the current loop.
