[chuck-users] While loop with condition =>NOW

[mario buoninfante]

Hi,

'while' continuously evaluates the condition in () parenthesis (that in 
your case is 20::ms => now, a "pause"), and if that's true then executes 
the code in between {}.

That is the equivalent of having


while(true)

{

     your code;

     20::ms => now;

}


Cheers,

Mario
