For Loops vs. While Loops

For loops and While loops can seem almost identical at first, and even though they are similar, they have their own strengths and purposes which make them good for different scenarios. But for now, just know that a while loop does something again and again until a condition is no longer satisfied, and a for loop does something a set number of times, usually the length of a list.
