Term used to describe the
process of a software
program or
script repeats the same instructions or processes the same information
over and over until receiving the order to stop.
If not handled properly a loop can cause the computer to become
slower as it becomes overwhelmed with having to repeat the same
steps over and over. Below is a basic example of a loop in a batch
file.
|
:BEGIN
Echo This is an endless loop!
GOTO BEGIN |
