Code - Looping Demo with some edits made in the lecture

// A series of demos on looping in C

    // This first loop is a basic loop with a counter

    // an integer outside the loop
    int counter = 0;

        printf("The first loop has completed %d times.\n", counter);
        counter = counter + 1;
    }

    // When counter hits 10 and the loop's test fails
    // the program will exit the loop

    // *****************************************************
    // This second loop shows the risk of asking the wrong
    // question in the loop!
    // This program will never end if this loop runs!
    //while (1 < 2) {
    //    printf("Never going to give you up\n");
    //    printf("Never going to let you down . . .\n");
    //}

    // *****************************************************
    // This loop will end only when a certain condition is
    // met. When it detects that the input number is odd
    
    // an integer outside the loop
    int runLoop = 1;

    // The loop will exit if it reads an odd number
    while (runLoop) {
