When an infinite loop is created intentionally there is usually another control structure that allows termination of the loop. For example, a break statement would allow termination of an infinite loop. Some languages may use a different naming convention for this type of loop. For example, the Pascal and Lua languages have a "repeat until ...
In computer programming, an infinite loop (or endless loop) [1] [2] is a sequence of instructions that, as written, will continue endlessly, unless an external intervention occurs, such as turning off power via a switch or pulling a plug. It may be intentional.
If while is omitted, we get an infinite loop. The construction here can be thought of as a do loop with the while check in the middle. Hence this single construction can replace several constructions in most programming languages. Languages lacking this construct generally emulate it using an equivalent infinite-loop-with-break idiom:
After completing all the statements in the loop body, the condition, (x < 5), is checked again, and the loop is executed again, this process repeating until the variable x has the value 5. It is possible, and in some cases desirable, for the condition to always evaluate to true, creating an infinite loop.
A Queens public high-school teacher created a creepy “escape room” where he allegedly sexually abused a female student, according to a troubling new report.
Some infinite loops can be quite useful. For instance, event loops are typically coded as infinite loops. [1] However, most subroutines are intended to finish. [2] In particular, in hard real-time computing, programmers attempt to write subroutines that are not only guaranteed to finish, but are also guaranteed to finish before a given deadline ...
The mayor of McColl, S.C. was killed in a car accident on Tuesday, with officials saying he was being pursued by a sheriff's deputy when he died.
Two runways were closed at Paris Charles-de-Gaulle airport Tuesday as officials tried to capture a dog a week after it escaped from an aircraft, Air France and airport sources said.
