## until

until — A syntactic looping construction.

## Description

A syntactic looping construction.

## Syntax

    until  condition do
        ... od

## Performance

The statements between the do and od form the body of a loop which is obeyed until the conditional becomes true.

## Examples

Here is an example of the until construction. It uses the file until.csd.

Example 939. Example of the until opcode.

See the sections Real-time Audio and Command Line Flags for more information on using command line flags.

Its output should include lines like this:

    B  0.000 ..  1.000 T  1.000 TT  1.000 M:      0.0
    new alloc for instr 1:
    instr 1:  p4 = 3.000
    instr 1:  p4 = 2.000
    instr 1:  p4 = 1.000
    instr 1:  p4 = 0.000
    instr 1:  p4 = -1.000
    B  1.000 ..  2.000 T  2.000 TT  2.000 M:      0.0
    new alloc for instr 2:
    instr 2:  p4 = 3.000
    instr 2:  p4 = 2.000
    instr 2:  p4 = 1.000
    instr 2:  p4 = 0.000
    instr 2:  p4 = -1.000
    B  2.000 ..  3.000 T  3.000 TT  3.000 M:      0.0
