Regarding WHILE...WEND

[SteveB]

WHILE number < 3000
 number = number + 1
WEND

REPEAT
 number = number + 1
UNTIL number = 3000

If you entered each above code sections with number < 3000, these two conditional loops would operate identically, and number would be incremented until number = 3000.

BUT, if you entered with number > 2999 Then...
- The WHILE..WEND would not execute, and number would remain the same.
- The REPEAT..UNTIL loop would execute 1 time, and number would be incremented by 1.

The first one is what my experience also showed. So everything is fine.

The code will see 2999 as less than 3000, therefore it will increment as per the next line, so when the loop ends you have number=3000.

That is what I experienced.

Hi, Security

Just remember the "number" is checked at WHILE and UNTIL lines ( where you write the test ) and it bails out ( if test true ) just after.

Mikroelektronika manuals ( basic and C ) have a very nice explanation of that ...

Hi, Acetronics

Just remember the problem is solved.
