There's no point in having a loop that only executes once. Either the loop structure should be removed, or its body should be corrected not to unconditionally exit after the first iteration.


== Noncompliant Code Example

----
for (int i=0; i < 1; i++) {  // Noncompliant
  doTheThing();
}

bool myFlag = true
while (myFlag) {  // Noncompliant
  doSomethingElseEntirely();
  myFlag = false;
}

while (myFlag) {  // Noncompliant
  doTheThirdThing();
  if (alwaysTrueCondition) {
    break;
  }
}
----


== Compliant Solution

----
doTheThing();

doSomethingElseEntirely();

doTheThirdThing();
----
Or

----
for (int i=0; i < 10; i++) {
  doTheThing();
}

bool myFlag = true
while (myFlag) {
  doSomethingElseEntirely();
  myFlag = conditional;
}

while (myFlag) {
  doTheThirdThing();
  if (conditionThatCouldBeFalse) {
    break;
  }
}
----
