Boundary Conditions

To determine what a loop does, look at the following:

• Look at the initialization.
• Look at the condition to determine when the loop ends.
• Look at what change is made each time the loop body executes.

Here is another version of the example fragment:

int count = 1;  
while ( count < 4 )  // this is different 
{
  System.out.println( "count is:" + count );
  count = count + 1;   
}
System.out.println( "Done with the loop" );      

The loop condition has been changed from the previous version.
