Can't someone fix all this challenges?

It's not really an infinite loop. https://prnt.sc/ntnms7

Here you can see it: https://code.sololearn.com/c6BdfR5B0UBC/?ref=app A do while loop executes once and then checks the condition. If the condition is true, repeat the loop. A while loop checks first the condition and only if the condition is true it executes the code.

Have you tried it in the code playground? It is an infinite loop. int x = 0; Do{ System.out.println(x); //output: 0 x++; //x = 1 }while (x > 0) //true -> 1 > 0

No it is not. x will reach Integer.MAX_VALUE after a time and then adding 1 to it will set it to Integer.MIN_VALUE which is -2^31. Denise Roßberg

Real infinity does not exist either. No matter which data type you choose (int, long, BigInteger), you will find a technical barrier. But theoretically, this condition leads to an infinite loop.

Denise Roßberg My problem is not about condition checking, it is about the variable size of an int.

A while(true) loop would be pretty much infinite. Or just a different break condition would help
