The code below shows a WordPress loop. How can I modify this loop to show only one post on the page?

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="fullbox" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h3><?php the_category(', ') ?></h3>
<div class="fullbox_content">
<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

<?php static $count = 0;
if ($count == "n") { break; }
else { ?>

<div class="fullbox" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h3><?php the_category(', ') ?></h3>
<div class="fullbox_content">
<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

<?php $count++; } ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

    So in your case, “n” would be 1.
