Case2: 
use strict;
my $i=5;
do
{
   print"the value of i is :$i\n";

This program is executing as expected

Case3: 
use strict;
my $i=5;
print "the value of i outside the loop is $i\n";
do
{
   print"now i entered inside the loop \n";
   my $i=10;
   print "the value of i inside the loop is :$i\n";
   $i--;
}until($i<=0);

This is failing to go through the loop. Please clarify why scoping inside the loop is not getting triggered.
