Its for infinite loop. For example if you want to run a block of code forever you may want to use this technique For example while True: name=str(input("enter your name:" )) print("hello "+name) if name == 'quit': break now the above code would run the while loop forever since its always True (while loops breaks when condition is false) . Inorder to break it we can use 'break' keyword with a 'if' condition. if the input you give is equal to 'quit' the loop breaks

these kinds of while loops are used for infinite times iterating,break statement will require inside the loop (within a if block)to break the loop.
