Loops and Nesting

Loops are the unsung heroes of programming, the workhorses that keep the whole operation chugging along. But have you ever found yourself stuck in an infinite loop, wondering how to escape?

For Dummies: A Guide to Loops and Nesting for the Clumsy Coder

Don't worry, friend! Pixelated Pandemonium Debugging for Dummies has got you covered. In this section, we'll be exploring the basics of loops and nesting, because who needs a flowchart when you can have a flowchart?

Variables and Syntax - The Building Blocks of Loops

Loops 101: The While Loop

The while loop: the most basic of the basic. It's like a never-ending hamster wheel for your code, but don't worry, we'll get you spinning in no time.

				
					while (true) {
						console.log("I'm stuck in an infinite loop, help!");
					}

But wait, what's that? A loop that never ends? Sounds like a great way to get some exercise, right?

Loops 201: The For Loop

The for loop: the loop that's always in control. It's like a boss who won't let you go until you do it right.

				
					for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
						console.log(i);
					}

But don't worry, it's not all bad. With a for loop, you can get some real work done.

Loops 202: The Do-While Loop

The do-while loop: the loop that's always in denial. It's like a friend who won't let you go home.

				
					do {
						console.log("I'll just stay here for a bit longer...");
					} while (true);

But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom. With a do-while loop, you can get some real practice in.

Nesting: The Looping Loops

Nesting: the ultimate loop party. It's like a Russian nesting doll of loops, but without the dolls.

				
					for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
						while (true) {
							console.log(i);
						}
					}

But don't worry, it's not all madness. With nesting, you can get some real complexity in.
