6,650 PointsThe documentation describes a do while loop pretty well.
// Declaration of variables
var result = '';
var i = 0;
// Start of the loop
do {
i += 1;
result += i + ' ';
} while (i < 5); <-- The condition
A do while loop and a while loop are very similar. The difference is that a do while loop, will run once before checking if the condition is true. A while loop will only run if the condition is true. I'd suggest that you refresh the challenge, to get the original code, and do it similar to this loop. Breaking it down in steps you should
- Declare the secret variable
- Start the loop with do {}
- Put the statement in the do scope
- Add the while condition
