+do/while Loop
+=============
+
+A ``do`` loop works in the same manner as a :ref:`while
+<lang-while>` loop, with the exception that the condition is tested
+at the end of the loop, so the ``do`` loop will *always* run at least
+once.
+
+This is the basic syntax::
+
+ do {
+ // statement block
+ } while (test condition);
+
+Example::
+
+ do {
+ delay(50); // wait for sensors to stabilize
+ x = readSensors(); // check the sensors
+ } while (x < 100);
