SHORT DESCRIPTION
	Runs a statement list one or more times, subject to a While or Until 
	condition.


LONG DESCRIPTION
	The Do keyword works with the While keyword or the Until keyword to run 
	the statements in a script block, subject to a condition. Unlike the 
	related While loop, the script block in a Do loop always runs at least 
	once.


	A Do-While loop is a variety of the While loop. In a Do-While loop, the 
	condition is evaluated after the script block has run. As in a While loop,
	the script block is repeated as long as the condition evaluates to true. 


	Like a Do-While loop, a Do-Until loop always runs at least once before 
	the condition is evaluated. However, the script block runs only while
	the condition is false. 


	The Continue and Break flow control keywords can be used in a Do-While 
	loop or in a Do-Until loop.  


  Syntax
	The following shows the syntax of the Do-While statement:


		do {<statement list>} while (<condition>)


	The following shows the syntax of the Do-Until statement:


		do {<statement list>} until (<condition>)


	The statment list contains one or more statements that run each time
	the loop is entered or repeated.


	The condition portion of the statement resolves to true or false. 


  Example
	The following example of a Do statement counts the items in an 
	array until it reaches an item with a value of 0.


		C:\PS> $x = 1,2,78,0
		C:\PS> do { $count++; $a++; } while ($x[$a] -ne 0) 
		C:\PS> $count
		3


	The following example uses the Until keyword. Notice that
	the not equal to operator (-ne) is replaced by the 
	equal to operator (-eq).


		C:\PS> $x = 1,2,78,0
		C:\PS> do { $count++; $a++; } until ($x[$a] -eq 0) 
		C:\PS> $count
		3


	The following example writes all the values of an array, skipping any
	value that is less than zero.


		do
		{
			if ($x[$a] -lt 0) { continue }
			Write-Host $x[$a]
	} 
		while (++$a -lt 10)
