As you've noticed, there's often more than one way to do something in programming. Loops (while/do) and conditionals (if/switch) can be implemented with different keywords and syntax. With practice, you will find that some methods work better in some programming situations. But to begin with, it's good just to learn which variations exist and how they are structured.
