"You have not posted entire code."?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
for(;0;)
printf("hello") ;

return 0;
}

I tried it on 4 different compilers and none of them printed hello on
the screen. One of them warned about unreachable code.

"This is an excellent reply; I wish I had thought of it myself."

The problem with communicating in such abbreviated forms is that it is
difficult and slow for to read for some and impossible for others.

Not what I had in mind, although you did get the first three words right.

As you have demonstrated, the more letters that are gratuitously omitted
from the words of an article, the harder it is to decide what the author
meant.

Lookup how a "for" loop works and all will become clear.

HINT: The conditional to be tested in the above snippet is always false.
