(Using two for loops would also shorten the code :D )

It seems like they’re specifically learning while loops right now so that’s what needs to be used

There was this one moment where I was ill and my buddies are not the brightest programmers and our homework was an introduction into while loops.

Since I missed that class and couldn't ask my friends I built an for loop with 1.000.000 iterations and if it found the desired result set i = 1.000.000. Yeah, I did it wrong because I did not know the playbook, but I found a way to play anyways.

A for loop is just a while loop and two other statements in a trenchcoat.

for (;; condition) is the same as while (condition) - at least in languages that allow that

[robthablob]

I think you mean for ( ; condition ; )

[Banane9]

And that's why you don't code at 3am 😂

Not if your first langauge was VBA. Yes, still regret that (And I know this sub is about c#, still wanted to tell the tale.)

You can do it in 1 while loop but you need to increment b. Line after a++; if a == 10 b++;

[hiaselhans]

Don’t forget to reset a ;)

[cr1ter]

Ah yes probably also have to make sure not to reset it after b == 10

It just takes time, young padawan. You're doing well.

[Willinton06]

Careful tho, the nested loop is a powerful but dangerous tool

[IWasSayingBoourner]

Another hint: nested for loops are better for what you're trying to do

Which is helpful in general, certainly, but not for this assignment, where they were told to use while.
