In setting up a website's backend server, the developer wants to run a specific task 10 times. Which structure would be most appropriate to use in this scenario?
A while loop that continues until an external condition changes
An if statement that checks if the task has been done 10 times
A for loop that iterates 10 times
A do-while loop that executes at least once and then checks a condition
The for loop is most appropriate for this scenario because it allows the developer to specify the number of times a block of code should run. In this case, it would run the task exactly 10 times. A while loop is better suited when the total number of iterations is not known in advance, a do-while loop guarantees at least one execution before testing its condition, and an if statement is not a looping construct at all.
