El bucle do ... while funciona de la misma manera que el bucle while, con la excepción de que la condición se comprueba al final del bucle, por lo que el bucle se ejecutará siempre al menos una vez.
Sintaxis
do {// bloque de instrucciones} while (condición de prueba);
Ejemplo
Ejemplo 1
voidsetup() {Serial.begin(9600);Serial.println("====== TEST START ======");int i = 0;do {Serial.print("Inside the DO WHILE loop: i = ");Serial.println(i); i++; // increase i by 1 } while (i < 5);Serial.println("====== TEST END ========");}voidloop() {}
The result on Serial Monitor:

do...while loop vs while loop
The while loop checks the condition before executing the block of code; conversely, the dowhile loop checks the condition after executing the block of code. Therefore, the dowhile loop will always be executed at least once, even if the condition is false at the beginning.
The do...while and while loop are the same, except for the case in which the condition is false at the beginning.
For example:
Code with do...while loop
voidsetup() {Serial.begin(9600);Serial.println("====== TEST START ======");int i = 10;do {Serial.print("Inside the DO WHILE loop: i = ");Serial.println(i); i++; // increase i by 1 } while (i < 5);Serial.println("====== TEST END ========");}voidloop() {}

※ Nota:
There are three ways to escape the dowhile loop:
The condition of the do while loop becomes false.
The execution of the code reaches a break statement inside the loop.
The execution of the code reaches a goto statement inside the loop, which jumps to a label located outside of the loop.
