Task one: There are plates in the kitchen. Bring one to the dining room. Go back to the kitchen. Are there plates left in the kitchen? If yes, bring one to the dining room. Go back to the kitchen, etc.
The "go back" is a loop.
And the test (Are there plates left in the kitchen) is a way to terminate the loop so it doesn't go on forever.
Task two:There are plates in the kitchen. Bring one to the dining room. Are there now 4 plates in the dining room? If not, go back to the kitchen and bring back another plate.
Here the loop is counting instead of bring back all the plates.
Repetition is the essence of a loop. It either continues until some condition is met, or until a count is reached. (But a count being reached is simply one type of condition).
If you still don't understand how loops work, then you need to figure out WHY you don't understand.
Perhaps you just find the syntax to be intimidating.
