Java do-while Loop: Execute First, Then Judge to Avoid Unnecessary Loop Execution

The core of the do-while loop in Java is "execute the loop body first, then judge the condition", ensuring the loop body is executed at least once. It is suitable for scenarios where data needs to be processed at least once initially (such as user input validation). Its syntax structure is `do{ loop body }while(condition);`, and it should be noted that a semicolon must be added after while. Compared with the while loop (which judges first), it avoids the problem that the loop body does not execute when the initial condition is not met. For execution flow example: taking outputting 1-5 as an example, after initializing the variable, the loop body is executed, the variable is updated, and the condition is judged until the condition is not met to terminate. Common mistakes include: forgetting to update the loop variable causing an infinite loop, omitting the semicolon after while, or the condition failing to terminate the loop. This loop is applicable to scenarios where data must be processed first (such as reading files, user input interaction). To master its logic, attention should be paid to the correct update of the loop variable and the condition, ensuring the loop can terminate.
