A new OP :ref:`api_fluid_layers_while_loop` is highly recommended instead of ``While`` if the shape of parameter ``cond`` is [1].
OP :ref:`api_fluid_layers_while_loop` is easier to use and is called with less code but does the same thing as ``While`` .
Args:
cond(Variable): A Tensor whose data type is bool controlling whether to continue looping.
is_test(bool, optional): A flag indicating whether execution is in test phase. Default value is False.

IfElse OP is different from other OPs in usage, which may cause some users confusion. Here is a simple example to illustrate this OP.
