Because the condition in the \u2018while statement&#8217; is always True, this type of loop will iterate over a set of statements indefinitely. We used a break statement to end this loop.<\/p>\n<p>We are printing the value of x and then incrementing it by one in the loop block. Then it determines whether or not x is divisible by 5. When x is divisible by 5, the break statement is invoked.
