| for | over items | each letter |
| while | count unknown | digit sums |
| while | wait for event | correct guess |
Remember
| Known count: for |

Two loops. How do you pick one? Is the count known? Use for when it is known. Use for to go over items. Use while when it is unknown. Use while to wait for an event. Known count means for. Unknown count means while.
