Loops/Do-while
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Start with a value at 0. Loop while value mod 6 is not equal to 0. Each time through the loop, add 1 to the value then print it. The loop must execute at least once.
6502 Assembly
Code is called as a subroutine (i.e. JSR DoWhileSub). Specific OS/hardware routines for printing are left unimplemented. <lang 6502asm>DoWhileSub: PHA TYA PHA ;push accumulator and Y register onto stack

ActionScript
<lang actionscript>var val:int = 0; do {

C#
<lang csharp>int a = 0;

CoffeeScript
CoffeeScript doesn't have do {} while ()
loop, but it can be emulated using loop
statement and break unless
statement.
<lang coffeescript>val = 0
loop
console.log ++val break unless val % 6</lang>
ColdFusion
<lang cfm><cfscript>
value = 0; do { value += 1; writeOutput( value ); } while( value % 6 != 0 );
</cfscript></lang>
Common Lisp
<lang lisp>(setq val 0) (loop do
(incf val) (print val) while (/= 0 (mod val 6)))</lang>
loop can set up temporary values, and incf returns a value, so it's also possible to do
<lang lisp>(loop with val = 0
do (print (incf val)) until (= 0 (mod val 6)))</lang>
Clojure
<lang Clojure>(loop [i 0]
(let [i* (inc i)] (println i*) (when-not (zero? (mod i* 6)) (recur i*))))</lang>
D
<lang d>import std.stdio;

E
E does not have an official do-while construct, but the primitive which loops are built out of (which calls a function which returns a boolean indicating whether it should be called again) can be used to construct a do-while. <lang e>var x := 0 __loop(fn {
x += 1 println(x) x % 6 != 0 # this is the return value of the function
})</lang>
Ela
<lang ela>open console
loop n | n % 6 == 0 = out ()
| else = out `seq` loop (n+1) where out = & writen n</lang>
This implementation uses a thunk to represent a console output. Output is not done in the initialization of 'out' variable, it is done when 'out' calculation is forced by a 'seq' operator (sequencing operator).
Erlang
<lang Erlang> do() -> io:format("0~n"), do(1).
do(N) when N rem 6 =:= 0 -> io:format("~w~n", [N]); do(N) -> io:format("~w~n", [N]), do(N+1). </lang>
Factor
<lang factor>0 [ dup 6 mod 0 = not ] [ [ . ] [ 1 + ] bi ] do while drop</lang>
Fantom
There is no do-while statement in Fantom, so instead use an infinite while loop with a break statement:
<lang fantom> class Main {
public static Void main () { i := 0 while (true) { i += 1 echo (i) if (i % 6 == 0) break // end loop on condition } }
} </lang>
Forth
<lang forth>: do-until
0 begin 1+ dup . dup 6 mod 0= until drop ;</lang>
Fortran
<lang fortran>INTEGER :: i = 0 DO
i = i + 1 WRITE(*, *) i IF (MOD(i, 6) == 0) EXIT
END DO</lang>
<lang fortran> PROGRAM DOWHILE C Initialize modulus and value.
INTEGER MODLUS, IVALUE PARAMETER (MODLUS = 6) IVALUE = 0
C FORTRAN 77 has no do-while structure -- not semantically. It is not C difficult to simulate it using GOTO, however:
10 CONTINUE IVALUE = IVALUE + 1 WRITE (*,*) IVALUE IF (.NOT. (MOD(IVALUE, MODLUS) .EQ. 0)) GOTO 10
STOP END</lang>
Go
No do-while in Go. <lang go>package main
import "fmt"
func main() {
for value := 0;; { value++ fmt.Println(value) if value % 6 == 0 { break } }
}</lang> Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6
GML
<lang GML>i = 0 do
{ i += 1 show_message(string(i)) }
until (i mod 6 = 0)</lang>
Groovy
Groovy does not have a bottom-checking loop construct! So use an "infinite" while loop with a conditional break as the last statement <lang groovy>def i = 0 while (true) {
i++ println i if ( i % 6 == 0) break
}</lang>
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6
Haskell
<lang haskell>import Data.List import Control.Monad import Control.Arrow

Icon and Unicon
Icon and Unicon do not have a do-while looping control with end of loop checking. There are four looping controls 'every', 'repeat', 'until', and 'while' (see Introduction to Icon and Unicon/Looping Controls for more information.) <lang Icon>procedure main()
i := 0 repeat {
write(i +:= 1) if i % 6 = 0 then break }
end</lang>
J
J is array-oriented, so there is very little need for loops. For example, one could satisfy this task this way:
,. ([^:(0=6|])>:)^:a: 0
J does support loops for those times they can't be avoided (just like many languages support gotos for those time they can't be avoided). <lang j>3 : 0 ] 0
NB. The 'st' in 'whilst' stands for 'skip test'
whilst. 0 ~: 6 | y do. y 1!:2 ]2 y =. y+1 end.

Though it's rare to see J code like this.
Java
<lang java>int val = 0; do{
val++; System.out.println(val);

JavaScript
<lang javascript>var val = 0; do {

LabVIEW
This image is a VI Snippet, an executable image of LabVIEW code. The LabVIEW version is shown on the top-right hand corner. You can download it, then drag-and-drop it onto the LabVIEW block diagram from a file browser, and it will appear as runnable, editable code.
Liberty BASIC

Lisaac
<lang Lisaac>+ val : INTEGER; {
val := val + 1; val.print; '\n'.print; val % 6 != 0

Lua
Lua doesn't have a do .. while
construct.
<lang lua> i=0 repeat
i=i+1 print(i)
until i%6 == 0 </lang>
Logo
<lang logo>make "val 0 do.while [make "val :val + 1 print :val] [notequal? 0 modulo :val 6] do.until [make "val :val + 1 print :val] [equal? 0 modulo :val 6]

end my.loop 0</lang>
Mathematica
<lang Mathematica>value = 5; NestWhile[
# + 1 & , value , (Print[#]; Mod[#, 6] != 0) & ];</lang>
gives back: <lang Mathematica>5 6</lang> If the starting value is 6, only 6 is returned.
MATLAB / Octave
<lang Matlab> a=0;
while (1) a = a+1; disp(a); if (~mod(a,6)) break; end; end; </lang>
Maxima
<lang maxima>block([n: 0], do (ldisp(n: n + 1), if mod(n, 6) = 0 then return('done)))$</lang>
MAXScript
<lang maxscript>a = 0 do (
print a a += 1
) while mod a 6 != 0</lang>
Metafont
Metafont has no a do-while construct; the same thing can be done using a forever loop and exitif.
<lang metafont>a := 0; forever: show a; a := a + 1; exitif a mod 6 = 0; endfor end</lang>
Modula-2
<lang modula2>MODULE DoWhile;
IMPORT InOut;
VAR i: INTEGER;
BEGIN
i := 0 REPEAT InOut.WriteInt(i, 1); InOut.WriteLn; INC(i) UNTIL i MOD 6 = 0;
END DoWhile.</lang>
Modula-3
This is very similar to the Modula-2 code above. <lang modula3>REPEAT
i := i + 1; IO.Put(Fmt.Int(i));
UNTIL i MOD 6 = 0;</lang>
Nemerle
<lang Nemerle>mutable x = 0; do {
x++; WriteLine($"$x");
} while (x % 6 != 0)</lang>
NetRexx
In NetRexx the do–while construct is implemented via the until expru
conditional clause of the loop
instruction. The expression expru in the until expru
clause is evaluated at the end of the loop, guaranteeing that the loop will be executed at least once.
<lang NetRexx>/* NetRexx */
options replace format comments java crossref savelog symbols nobinary
say say 'Loops/Do-while'
i_ = 0 loop until i_ // 6 = 0 i_ = i_ + 1 say i_ end
</lang>
OCaml
OCaml doesn't have a do-while loop, so we can just make a local loop: <lang ocaml>let rec loop i =
let i = succ i in Printf.printf "%d\n" i; if i mod 6 <> 0 then loop i in loop 0</lang>
or implementing a generic do-while iterator with higher order function:
<lang ocaml>let do_while f p =
let rec loop() = f(); if p() then loop() in loop()
(** val do_while : (unit -> 'a) -> (unit -> bool) -> unit *)</lang>
<lang ocaml>let v = ref 0 in do_while (fun () -> incr v; Printf.printf "%d\n" !v)
(fun () -> !v mod 6 <> 0)</lang>
The example above is the an imperative form, below is its functional counterpart: <lang ocaml>let do_while f p ~init =
let rec loop v = let v = f v in if p v then loop v in loop init
do_while (fun v ->
let v = succ v in Printf.printf "%d\n" v; (v)) (fun v -> v mod 6 <> 0) ~init:0</lang>
Or in a very poor OCaml style, we can use an exception to exit a while loop: <lang ocaml>let v = ref 0 exception Exit_loop try while true do
incr v; Printf.printf "%d\n" !v; if not(!v mod 6 <> 0) then raise Exit_loop;
done with Exit_loop -> ()</lang>
Objeck
<lang objeck> i := 0; do {
i += 1; i->PrintLine();
} while (i % 6 <> 0); </lang>
Octave
The do-while can be changed into a do-until, just negating the condition of the while. <lang octave>val = 0; do
val++; disp(val)
until( mod(val, 6) == 0 )</lang>
Openedge/Progress
<lang progress>DEFINE VARIABLE ii AS INTEGER.
DO WHILE ii MODULO 6 <> 0 OR ii = 0:
ii = ii + 1. MESSAGE ii VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
END.</lang>
Oz
Normal Oz variables are single-assignment only. So we use a "cell", which is a one-element mutable container. <lang oz>declare
I = {NewCell 0}
in
for until:@I mod 6 == 0 do I := @I + 1 {Show @I} end</lang>
PARI/GP
The generic Pari loops (while
, until
) test at the beginning, so just use an infinite loop with a break.
<lang parigp>x = 0;
while(1,
print(x++); if(val % 6 == 0, break)
)</lang>
Pascal
<lang pascal>program countto6(output);
var
i: integer;
begin
i := 0; repeat i := i + 1; writeln(i) until i mod 6 = 0
end.</lang>
Perl
<lang perl>my $val = 0; do {
$val++; print "$val\n";
} while ($val % 6);</lang>
do ... until (condition)
is equivalent to do ... while (not condition)
.
<lang perl>my $val = 0;
do {
$val++; print "$val\n";
} until ($val % 6 == 0);</lang>
Perl 6
<lang perl6>my $val = 0; repeat {
say ++$val;
} while $val % 6;</lang>
repeat ... until condition
is equivalent to do ... while not condition
.
<lang perl6>my $val = 0; repeat {
say ++$val;
} until $val %% 6;</lang>
(Here we've used %%
, the "divisible-by" operator.)
You can also put the condition before the block, without changing the order of evaluation. <lang perl6>my $val = 0; repeat while $val % 6 { say ++$val; }</lang>
PHP
<lang php>$val = 0; do {
$val++; print "$val\n";

Python
Python doesn't have a do-while loop. <lang python>val = 0 while True:
val +=1 print val if val % 6 == 0: break</lang>
or repeat the body of the loop before a standard while. <lang python>val = 1 print val while val % 6 != 0:
val += 1 print val</lang>
R

- be used to provide the same effect.

0 = mod value 6 ]</lang>
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6
REXX
In the do until construct, the expression is evaluated at the end of the DO loop, even though it is written at the beginning.
This insures that the DO UNTIL loop will execute at least once (as coded below).
In contrast, a do while construct, the expression would be evaulated at the beginning of the DO loop, and may cause the
DO WHILE loop to not execute at all.
<lang rexx>v=0
do until v//6 == 0 /* // is modulus in REXX.*/ v=v+1 say v end</lang>
Ruby
The while statement modifier normally checks the condition before entering the loop. But if the while statement modifier is on a begin ... end statement, then it loops at least once. Same with the until statement modifier.
while | until |
---|---|
<lang ruby>val = 0
begin val += 1 puts val end while val % 6 != 0</lang> |
<lang ruby>val = 0
begin val += 1 puts val end until val % 6 == 0</lang> |
During November 2005, Yukihiro Matsumoto, the creator of Ruby, regretted this loop feature and suggested using Kernel#loop.
break unless | break if |
---|---|
<lang ruby>val = 0
loop do val += 1 puts val break unless val %6 != 0 end</lang> |
<lang ruby>val = 0
loop do val += 1 puts val break if val %6 == 0 end</lang> |
All four of these examples print the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Smalltalk
To simulate the do-while construct, we can use the whileTrue: method of a block with a void while block. <lang smalltalk>|val| val := 0. [
val := val + 1. val displayNl. (val rem: 6) ~= 0
] whileTrue: [ ]</lang>
Suneido

Tcl
Tcl does not have a built-in do...while
construct. This example demonstrates the ease of creating new looping contructs in plain Tcl. do
procedure taken from Tcler's wiki
<lang tcl>proc do {body keyword expression} {
if {$keyword eq "while"} { set expression "!($expression)" } elseif {$keyword ne "until"} { return -code error "unknown keyword \"$keyword\": must be until or while" } set condition [list expr $expression] while 1 { uplevel 1 $body if {[uplevel 1 $condition]} { break } } return
}
set i 0 do {puts [incr i]} while {$i % 6 != 0}</lang>
<lang tcl>package require control set i 0; control::do {puts [incr i]} while {$i % 6 != 0} set i 0; control::do {puts [incr i]} until {$i % 6 == 0}</lang>
Mind you, it is also normal to write this task using a normal while
as:
<lang tcl>set i 0
while true {
puts [incr i] if {$i % 6 == 0} break
}</lang>
