• purpose of while(1); statement in c 12 answers

i saw in lots of example form of use while loop i'm not sure it's ok use in code.

 while(1){      // code lines      if(condition){         break;     }      // code lines } 

is ok use? does

while(1)   

exactly mean?

is ok use? exactly

yes, , commonly used in programming.

while(1) same while(true), condition thats true, ensuring while loop never stops until manually break out of break;

there many applications behavior. exit condition complex, requires function calls, etc. want infinite loop program (for menu instance) exits on specific prompts. wether or not use often stylistic choice.
