What would you expect your code to do that it does not? Incidentally, the standard language already has your "while" construct built in: (loop while <condition> do <body>) Some old farts are so hysterically opposed to extended loop that they re-create it piece by piece with their own while and until looping constructs. It is not a good idea to be a newbie and an old fart at the same time. Do not waste your time re-creating your previous language when you move to another. Learn the new language in its own right -- otherwise, there was never any point in leaving your old language. /// -- In a fight against something, the fight has value, victory has none.
