Boolean, A data type which only has two possible values: TRUE or FALSE., A condition, This is a statement that is either true or false. A computation depends on whether a condition equates to true or false., data, Units of information. In computing there can be different data types, including integers, characters and Boolean. It is often acted on by instructions., A definite iteration, A loop that repeats a set number of times, usually implemented using a FOR loop., efficiency, This is measured by how long a program takes to produce a result and how much space is used in the process., execution, The process of a program being run on a computer., FOR loop, The count-controlled loop can be described as a FOR loop. The program repeats the action FOR a number of times., indefinite iteration, A loop that repeats until a condition is either met or no longer met. This is usually implemented using a WHILE or REPEAT UNTIL loop., an instruction, A single action that can be performed by a computer processor., an iteration, The repetition of a BLOCK (2+) of statements within a computer program., a loop counter, A variable that counts how many times a FOR loop - or other type of count-controlled iteration - has been run., looping, Repeatedly executing a section of code (executing again and again and...), a repeat until loop, A REPEAT UNTIL loop code is repeated based on a certain condition and is checked at the end of each iteration.
