Actualy question is not vague but naked braces is not a loop. SO whatever you have said 6 loops that is fine.

    Yes, the question as asked is extremely vague, as evidenced by the things offered as loops

    map/grep/foreach cannot loop forever, they are iterators, but are still considered loops by some

    $ perl -le " print for 1 .. INF " Range iterator outside integer range at -e line 1.
