Nope, it must have a valid boolean expression inside the (parentheses). If you want it to be an infinite loop, it should be "while(true) {...}".

Yes, @aswathy, even if you have an infinite loop, like in "while(true){...}" you can (well, you *should*) have a break statement inside the while body. For example, while(true) { cin >> x; if (x < 0) { break; } else { cout << "The double of x is " << x << endl; } } ...will keep printing the double of the numbers you enter, provided they're positive or 0. If you enter a negative number, this acts as a "signal", and the loop finishes.
