===== REPEAT...UNTIL ✓ =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     REPEAT
         ...
     UNTIL expression

==== PURPOSE ====


The '''REPEAT...UNTIL'' command will repeatedly execute a block of code until a certain 
condition is met. In essence, it creates a loop that continues to repeat until a specific 
exit condition is met.

When you don't know exactly how many times you want to repeat a block of code, but you 
want to continue until a certain condition is met, this is the best command to use.
For example, to repeatedly prompt the user for input until they enter it correctly.
Another usage is to perform calculations that require multiple iterations, such as 
finding the square root of a number using the Newton-Raphson method.

Make sure the condition inside ''UNTIL'' can become true at some point, otherwise your 
program may end up in an infinite loop. If you need to execute a loop a large number 
of times, consider optimizing your code to improve performance.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    REPEAT
      score = score + 1
    UNTIL alive
