In C# is a for(;;) safe and what does it really do?

Question

I found an empty for statement in an existing bit of code and I\'m wondering what it does and is it \"safe\". It just feels wrong.

for(;;)
{
   //some if sta         


        

Answer 1

All of the expressions of the for statement are optional; for example, the following statement is used to write an infinite loop:

> for (; ; ) {
>     // ... }
