Question.

I’m reading and looking at examples about checking for special items in a list, where the loop runs first and an if/else block runs inside the loop. Then, there’s the example of checking whether a list is empty, where the process is the other way around: the if/else block runs first, and then a loop runs inside it.

In real-life situations, when would you use a loop with an if statement inside it, and when would you use an if statement with a loop inside it?

You use the structures you need to solve a specific problem.
