Think about how many programs a million is. That's allot of coding, my

Why? What can I do in the cycle that I can't do without the cycle? How
does the cycle make the code more efficient? How does the cycle make
the code clearer to most folks? What's the advantage of using the
cycle?

And I'm not trolling...I've written (conservatively) a million
programs using the cycle back in the day.
