While is acting strangely

[JayCee++]

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int choice(0);
void display (int);

int main()
{
    cout<<"Please enter the times table you would like to see : ";
    cin>>choice;

    while( choice >13 );

    if (choice>0)
        display (choice);
    else
        return 0;
}

void display(int)
{
    cout <<endl<<endl;
    cout <<"Here is the "<<choice<<" times table :"<<endl;

    for(int x=1;x<13;x++)
        cout<<choice<<" times "<<x<<" = "<<choice*x<<endl;
}

The code should display a times table if 'choice' is less than 13 ie up to a 12 times table, but the while only works if i make it 'while choice >13' if I make it '<13' it just hangs but compiles OK.

Also the program is exiting after the first table disply, shouldn't it keep going until I input '0'?

Sorry if this is really simple I have spent an hour trying to get it to run properly!!

Maybe use braces rather than ; to indicate what you want to loop?

Thanks Salem, it works fine now, especially after moving lines 10 and 11 within the choice loop as well.

I just knew it was something easy!!!
