What change is needed to make the code display "Let us learn Java" exactly 10 times?

Change the counter to 1.

To have the code display "Let us learn Java" exactly 10 times, the correct adjustment involves how many times the loop should execute based on the counter utilized in the loop condition. Changing the counter to 1 allows the loop to start at the beginning of the count and, combined with an appropriate loop control structure, will ensure that it iterates 10 times.

In typical loop structures, like a `while` loop, the condition might depend on a counter starting from 0 and running while it is less than a certain value, commonly set to 10. By initializing the counter to 1 and ensuring the loop is structured to check against reaching 11, it guarantees that the message is printed from 1 up to and including 10.

This adjustment aligns the starting point of the counting with the intended output, thus making it possible for the loop to execute precisely 10 times, leading to "Let us learn Java" being printed as required.

In contrast, adjustments such as altering the while condition to go to 11 could lead to additional iterations than intended, while employing a decrementing counter with increment logic might complicate the loop unnecessarily. Using a completely different loop type isn't required, as the existing loop can be modified appropriately to achieve
