What function creates custom loops?

I'm having trouble with the quiz on the content and have gone over the video for Wordpress development and am still not understanding what they are asking. The question says, "To create custom loops in our Wordpress templates, we use the ____ function." I know I'm probably really off but I've tried thinking maybe it was the array function or the child theme, the text editor, and a bunch of other items.

The answer is wp_query. That is the function you use.

For more info on wp_query check out the codex. http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query
