How to Write a while-Loop in R Programming (Example Code)
This tutorial shows how to write and use while-loops in the R programming language. while-loops are not as popular as for-loops, but can also be very useful.
Example: Basic Application of while-loop in R
my_data <- 5 # Create example data to be used within while-loop |
my_data <- 5 # Create example data to be used within while-loop
while(my_data <= 100) { # Start running while-loop my_data <- my_data * 2 # Do some operation print(my_data) # Print output of while-loop iteration } # [1] 10 # [1] 20 # [1] 40 # [1] 80 # [1] 160 |
while(my_data <= 100) { # Start running while-loop my_data <- my_data * 2 # Do some operation print(my_data) # Print output of while-loop iteration } # [1] 10 # [1] 20 # [1] 40 # [1] 80 # [1] 160
