title: Iterate with JavaScript While Loops title: Iterate with JavaScript While Loops

Another type of JavaScript loop is called a `while loop` because it runs `while` something is true, and stops once that something is no longer true. Another type of JavaScript loop is called a `while loop` because it runs `while` something is true, and stops once that something is no longer true. Unlike the `for loop`, which is made up of three parts, the `while loop` only contains a condition statement.
var ourArray = []; var ourArray = [];
var i = 0; var i = 0;
while(i < 5) { while(i < 5) {
ourArray.push(i); ourArray.push(i);
i++; i++;
} }
It is important to remember to increase the variable used in this example, without the addition of `i++` the loop would continue forver.
