Answer 1

For loops:
Decide how many times to loop,
You can iterate backwards or forwards,
(Optional)You can do an infinite loop,
You can declare an integer inside for loops

While loops:
Decide how many times to loop,
You can do an infinite loop,
(Optional)Use an existing integer to loop

Answer 7

Typically you will use a for loop when have a preset number that you want it to run, such as the looping through every element in a list/array until the array length is reached. A while loop is commonly used when you don't have a set number to loop through, but you know the condition that it will run under, such as continue to run a game until the user choice is to quit then exit or continue to except student grades until the teacher enters the value q. I hope that helps
