Idiom #78 "do while" loop

Execute a block once, then execute it again as long as boolean condition c is true.

Execute a block once, then execute it again as long as boolean condition c is true.

for{
   someThing()
   …
   someOtherThing()
   if !c {
     break
   }
}

for{
   someThing()
   …
   someOtherThing()
   if !c {
     break
   }
}

Go has no do while loop, use the for loop, instead.
