Decremental While Loop

[GoodluckH]

I was wondering if there's anyway to implement tqdm on a while-loop that terminates at certain minimal value rather than an upper bound? I don't quite know how to rewrite this as a for-loop to use tqdm.

For example:

while h > 0:
    ....
    h /= 3

Thank you.

while h > 0:
    h /= 3

will technically be an infinite loop if it weren't for machine precision.

You could do:

with tqdm() as t:
    while h > 0:
        h /= 3
        t.update()

or if instead you mean:

while h > 1:
    h /= 3

then you could do:

import math
from tqdm import trange

total = int(math.ceil(math.log(h, 3)))
for _ in trange(total):
    if h <= 1:
        break
    h /= 3

Thank you, this is very helpful!
