<?php
$i = 1;
while($i < 10) {
    echo $i;
    $i++;
}
?>

or

<?php
$i = 1;
do {
    echo $i;
    $i++;
} while ($i < 10);
?>

Either method should be an acceptable answer.

Although I highly recommend you go back and re-watch the videos before this task as they explain how this works and you will find it is something you will most likely use a lot in the future.
