Repeat loop in R is used to iterate over a block of code multiple number of times. And also it executes the same code again and again until a break statement is found. Repeat loop, unlike other loops, doesn't use a condition to exit the loop instead it looks for a break statement that executes if a condition within the loop body results to be true. An infinite loop in R can be created very easily with the help of the Repeat loop. The keyword used for the repeat loop is 'repeat'. Syntax:
repeat { commands if(condition) { break } }

# R program to illustrate repeat loop result <- c("Hello World") i <- 1 # test expression  repeat {  print(result)    # update expression   i <- i + 1    # Breaking condition  if(i >5) {  break  } } 
Output:
[1] "Hello World" [1] "Hello World" [1] "Hello World" [1] "Hello World" [1] "Hello World"
Example 2: Python3 1==
# R program to illustrate repeat loop result <- 1 i <- 1 # test expression  repeat {  print(result)    # update expression   i <- i + 1  result = result + 1  # Breaking condition  if(i > 5) {  break  } } 
Output:
[1] 1 [1] 2 [1] 3 [1] 4 [1] 5
