What is more energy efficient a dishwasher or a sink?
The dishwasher is more efficient, undoubtedly. Washing anything by hand, unless absolutely necessary, is a waste of time, water & energy. I recommend putting just about anything in the dishwasher: plates pots pans dishes, without rinsing. Try it out, let the dishwasher show you what it can do. Pots & pans will dull, but won't otherwise change. Teflon pans will wear, you have to decide if you want the ease of the dishwasher and replace them as needed. Don't put in cast iron pans, nor Great Aunt Agatha's China unless you are sure about it. If the dishwasher is not full, most dishwashers have a rinse-only option, run that rinse-only if you don't plan to run a full cycle in the dishwasher until the next day. Washing in the sink before you run a cycle adds the problem that dishwasher-soap usage is based on dirty dishes, not clean, you could be over sudsing. If you can, run the hot water faucet before starting the dishwasher, so that the dishwasher has to expend less electrical energy to heat the water to the correct temperature for the cycle.
Compare Do-While with While Statements?
A Do-While loop looks like this: do { loop body } while (condition); and a While loop looks like this: while (condition) { loop body } The main difference is that the loop body is always run once in the Do-While loop, then the condition is checked to see if the loop should keep running. In a While loop, the condition is checked first, and it will not run the loop body at all if the condition is false.
