c - Two semicolons inside a for-loop parentheses -
im customising code found on internet (it's adafruit tweet receipt). cannot understand many parts of code perplexing me for-loop 2 semicolons inside parentheses boolean jsonparse(int depth, byte endchar) { int c, i; boolean readname = true; for(;;) { //<--------- while(isspace(c = timedread())); // scan past whitespace if(c < 0) return false; // timeout if(c == endchar) return true; // eod if(c == '{') { // object follows if(!jsonparse(depth + 1, '}')) return false; if(!depth) return true; // end of file if(depth == resultsdepth) { // end of object in results list what for(;;) mean? (it's arduino program guess it's in c) for(;;) { } functionally means while (true) { } it break loop/ return loop based on condition inside loop body. the reason for(;;) loops forever because for has 3 parts, each of optional . first part initializes loop; second decides whether or not continue loop, ...
