I need to set up a while loop to compute the projectile’s range for gradually increasing velocities, starting at zero and increasing by 0.1m/s each time. But i have only studied FOR loops and i dont know how to do WHILE loops can someone help ?

Set up a while loop to compute the projectile’s range for gradually increasing velocities, starting at zero and increasing by 0.1m/s each time. I could have had done it with for loops but i need to set up a loop for infinite iterations.

just like for loop, you can use

while true
  you code
end

[Ahtisham]

yes but for a FOR loop we have to set a number of times the loop runs but how is it possible with the while loop since it runs infinitely, im sorry if i am missing something i'm new to matlab so if you will be a bit more specific

[Amit]

With while loop you do:

while condition
 _Blah_
end

The condition (like x < 1) returns a logical value (true or false, 0 or 1). While will run until that logical value is true. That is why "while true" will run infinitely.
