Unlike for and while loop, which tests the loop condition at the start of the loop, the do…while loop checks its condition at the end of the loop.

Syntax C# Do…While Loop

The syntax of a do…while loop in C# is −

do {
   statement(s);
} while( condition );

Notice that the conditional expression appears at the end of the loop, so the statement(s) in the loop execute once before the condition is tested.

If the condition is true, the flow of control jumps back up to do, and the statement(s) in the loop execute again. This process repeats until the given condition becomes false.

Example

using System;

namespace Loops {
   class Program {
      static void Main(string[] args) {
         /* local variable definition */
         int a = 10;
         
         /* do loop execution */
         do {
            Console.WriteLine("value of a: {0}", a);
            a = a + 1;
         } 
         while (a < 20);
         Console.ReadLine();
      }
   }
} 

The following result −

value of a: 10
value of a: 11
value of a: 12
value of a: 13
value of a: 14
value of a: 15
value of a: 16
value of a: 17
value of a: 18
value of a: 19
