Iteration: Infinite Loops

• CONCEPT: If you don’t properly change your iteration variable – so that the conditional eventually evaluates to false – then you will never exit the loop

• We call that situation an infinite loop

• The only of breaking out of an infinite loop is by “stopping” the program from outside of the program itself

• In VB6, press the CTRL + BREAK keys to end an infinite loop
