Loop over a collection with while
The while construct causes the block of code between its curly braces to be executed repeatedly until the boolean expression at the top becomes false.
In the previous lesson, you created the body of the pointsToBust function to calculate the specific number of points. In this exercise, you'll write a while loop that loops through five hands (one for each player in the game) and finds the number of points to bust for each. Writing this while loop instead of calling the pointsToBust function five times makes our program more concise and readable.
