byte

[Vishal Arora]

The output of this code given below is "Welcome to Java".Can somebody tell me why it is not an infinite loop printing welcome to java.
public class XTC {

public static void main ( String [ ] args ) { // ---> line 1
XTC x = new XTC();
x.infiniteLoop();
}
void infiniteLoop ( ) {
byte b = 1 ;
while ( ++b > 0 ) ;
System . out . println ( " Welcome to Java " ) ;
}

}

Watch the end of WHile loop? It ends with semicolon.(it is an empty loop)

Actaully empty loop will execute 126 times and comes out because after 127 it will start with -128..
