while {condition that the loop continues}:
{what to do in the loop}
{have it indented, usually four spaces}
{the code here is not looped}
{because it isn't indented}

Python 2 because there seems to be a lot of tutorials out there covering Python
2 rather than 3.
Thanks for the help this community is great for help.
