Describe two different forms of looping?

For loop: A for loop is a control flow statement that repeats a block of code a set number of times based on a predefined condition. It is commonly used when you know in advance how many iterations are needed. While loop: A while loop is another control flow statement that repeats a block of code as long as a specified condition is true. It is useful when you do not know in advance how many times the code needs to be executed.

What is the medical term meaning surgical incision into the thalamus?

Thalamotomy (thalsm = thalamus + tom = cut + y = procedure) was first introduced to the medical world in the 1950s as an invasive procedure for the control of temors such as those associated with Parkinson's disease. Working on the side of the thalamus opposite the side with the tremors, the positive effects are immediate. Subthalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) is sometimes a perferred procedure since it is not as destructive.
