Tame the Infinite: Your Essential Guide to Python While Loops

Want to repeat a task in Python until a specific condition is met? Enter the `while` loop, your trusty companion for iterative tasks! Unlike `for` loops that iterate over a sequence, `while` loops keep running as long as their condition remains true.

Here's the basic structure:

```python
while condition:
# Code to be executed
```

**Important Considerations:**

* **Initialization:** Ensure your loop variable is initialized *before* the loop begins.
* **Condition:** Define a clear condition that will eventually become false. Otherwise, you'll create an infinite loop!
* **Update:** Within the loop, modify a variable involved in the condition so it will eventually change and terminate the loop.

**Example:**

```python
count = 0
while count < 5:
print(f"Count is: {count}")
count += 1
```

This snippet prints the value of `count` from 0 to 4. Master the `while` loop, and you'll unlock a powerful tool for automating tasks in Python.
