Pretest loops, such as for-loop, while-loop, execute/evaluate the condition statement first, if the condition is met, then the statements of the loop are executed. If you were referring to the body of the loop being carried out at least once, no, the body will not be touched if the condition fails (pre-test, test BEFORE the [next] execution of the body). But the condition of the loop must have been evaluated at least once.

In contrast to the post-test loops, such as do-while, repeat-until, the condition is evaluated AFTER the [next] execution of the body. It is possible that the condition is never evaluate, and not the entire loop body being executed.

What is an example of a pretest loop?

Well, from my knowledge of pseudocode, a pre-test loop contains the DO WHILE and LOOP functions. So say you want to pour some milk into your cereal for breakfast: DO WHILE cereal_bowl.Full = False Pour_Milk LOOP Basically this is you saying, I am going to pour milk WHILE the bowl is not full. Once the bowl is full you will stop because you checked before your poured (a pre-test). Hope this helps. - The Doctor
