int p = 1, sum = 0; while(p <= 100) { sum += p * p; p++; }

p isn't incremented in the loop so p can't never be equal to 100!

variables p and sum are not initialized, lost semicolons after p * p. there is no loop exit condition, because p does not change

p does not change is value so it becomes an infinite loop, the condition is always true
