Beginnings of Programming - Loops (2/2/11)

All programming has 4 basic idea of loops. First off, loops are pretty much a central part of the language, what keeps it going, so to speak.

- Count-Controlled Loops
 -Repeating a loop as instructed in the language.

- Condition-Controlled Loops
 - Repeating a loop until a specific condition changes. Pretty simple to understand.

- Collection-Controlled Loops
 - Repeating a loop, similar to Count-Controlled but you can be more specific about what you want looped and how much and so on. Looping through a database is what this is.

There are also other misc loops such as Infinite Loops, which loop infinitely or until an exceptional condition arises.
