Message-ID: <20050315004759.473f6a0b.pj@engr.sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <42363EAB.3050603@yahoo.com.au>
In the overall kernel (Linus's bk tree) I count:
733 lines matching 'for *( *; *; *)'
718 lines matching 'while *( *1 *)'
In the kernel/*.c files, I count 15 of the 'for(;;)' style and 1 of the
'while(1)' style.
Certainly the 'for(;;)' style is acceptable, and even slightly to
substantially dominant, depending on which piece of code you're in.
