After the completion of the loop, the loop variable value will be the end value + step value (unless
550550
the loop is exited using a **GOTO** statement).
551551

552+
Conditional loops are achieved through the use of **WHILE-WEND** statements. The loop continues to execute
553+
as long as the specified condition remains true. The condition is evaluated before each iteration, so if
554+
the condition is false initially, the loop body will not execute at all.

WHILE loops may be nested within one another and can also be nested within FOR loops and vice versa.
570+
The loop will terminate when the condition becomes false or when exited using a **GOTO** statement.

**Example of nested WHILE loops:**
