+I am confused Marek.
+
+The ';' after the while is a common error in software:
+
+while (condition);
+ statement ();
+
+The situation arises when someone mistakenly leaves the trailing `;'
+after the while condition, and *visually* the code looks fine, but
+in reality `statement()' will be executed *always*.
