我可能很少用do，while，循环，但常常是,当编制程序游戏或需要用户输入的程序是,需要检查用户的输入并提醒用户,如果他们干扰了你,或没有提供所期望的输入。

So conceptually the key difference here, besides the syntax looking slightly different, it just means that if you want a chunk of code to execute no matter what initially, ; you can use the do while loop; if you want to check a condition first, you can use the while loop.

所以概念上，则关键的区别是，除了语法看起来有点不同，它的意思是如果你想要一段代码,最初无论如何都要执行，你就可以用do，while循环;,如果你想要先检查条件，你可以用while循环。
