## 6.1.4.3 Examples of WHILE and UNTIL clauses

     (loop while (hungry-p) do (eat))

    ;; UNTIL NOT is equivalent to WHILE.
     (loop until (not (hungry-p)) do (eat))

    ;; Collect the length and the items of STACK.
     (let ((stack '(a b c d e f)))
       (loop for item = (length stack) then (pop stack)
             collect item
             while stack))
    =>  (6 A B C D E F)

    ;; Use WHILE to terminate a loop that otherwise wouldn't terminate.
    ;; Note that WHILE occurs after the WHEN.
     (loop for i fixnum from 3
           when (oddp i) collect i
           while (< i 5))
    =>  (3 5)
