                                            as long as a certain condition is met?
                                            a. Variable assignment                b. Loop

                                            b. True if either of the conditions is true
                                        3.  What type of loop repeats a certain number of times?

                                            a. Conditional loop                   b. Counting loop

                                            a. A fixed number of times

                                            b. A certain condition is reached                                             135

                 •   Conditional  statements are used in a program to instruct  the  computer  to make  a
                   decision.

                 •   A loop allows a set of instructions or a block of code to be executed repeatedly.

                 •   When a loop repeats forever (endlessly), it is called an infinite loop.

                     a.   The  result  of  the  computer’s  decision  for  a  ____________  will  always  be  either  true
                        or false.

                        (i)  loop                                              (ii)  condition
                        (iii)  variable                                        (iv)  Constant
