In the given text, what is a characteristic of a do-while loop?

It checks its condition at the start
It executes its block of code at least once
It cannot include break or continue commands
It is primarily used for checking array contents

The correct answer is: It executes its block of code at least once

A do-while loop differs from a regular while loop in that it will always execute its block of code at least once. Even if the condition is initially false, the loop will still run once before checking the condition again. This is because the condition is checked at the end of the loop, rather than at the start. Option A is incorrect because a do-while loop checks its condition at the end, not the start. Option C is incorrect because it can include break or continue commands just like any other loop. Option D is incorrect because a do-while loop can be used for various purposes, not just for checking array contents.
