    another quick n easy question

    regarding DO..WHILE.. loops

    Code:
    int variable;
    
    do {
        blah;
        blah;
        blah;
         } while ( variable );

    the loop executes once at least, and then repeats if the condition specified between the parenthesis is TRUE. i am working with an example that doesn't use an expression, only a integer variable name as the condition. what determines when the variable will evaluate to TRUE and when to FALSE?

    Whether or not its value is zero (FALSE) or nonzero (TRUE).
    7. It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
    40. There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.*
