This is the while explanation (most of it) from PR 2nd edition , which I own.

while boolean-expression [ do | : ]
body
end
executes body zero or more times as long as boolean-expression is true.
until boolean-expression [ do | : ]
body
end

It doesn't help me one bit (literally), not with correctly setting up the loop.
