    They used a macro to make ‘IF’ (which is distinctly not ‘if’) map to ‘while’. So it’s really a while(1) loop, which will repeat forever, or until the program is terminated, whichever comes first.

    Someone’s just being silly.

      Thx!

      ‘IF’ (which is distinctly not ‘if’)

      Is this something needed “for the meme” or something with this macro or C/C++? Or why the case-sensitivity here? I only know languages like Java, Python, JS. Unfortunately the ancient tongue is not known to me.
