Loops & confusion in my mind

[Hassan]

I am facing a big confusion in my mind related to "For" & "While" loop give me a little idea about both these two loops. more over If I start a loop with while and then give conditions like as follow, just tell me is it the proper way to do that or I should do something else

While

If

("ABC") Then

Winexit("vhvsh")

Endif

If

("GHT") Then

Winexit("pieoph")

Endif

If

("4545") Then

Winexit("kjqhjq")

Endif

and next time an other string with another function but again in If used & it close & End if & again & again between While loop is Ok or I should try something different to make my source code a little small

WEnd

For loops let you execute a set of instructions a fixed number of times. A while loop keeps executing the code untill the condition is not true any more, which could never happen. You could have

If $string1 = "abcd" then
 do something
EndIf

The example you gave wouldn't actually work in AutoIt because a non empty string will evaluate to true. (Even "0") But otherwise the construction you showed is ok.

I can't answer the last sentence of your post because I don't understand it.
