Looping without a loop

[cypherzero]

In debug-step-through mode the first three lines of the following code just keep looping. Anyone any ideas as to why this would happen?! Cheers.

int r = GetRValue(colour) + (rand() % GetRValue(colourvar));
int g = GetGValue(colour) + (rand() % GetGValue(colourvar));
int b = GetBValue(colour) + (rand() % GetBValue(colourvar));
if (r > 255) r = 255;
if (g > 255) g = 255;
if (b > 255) b = 255;
return RGB(r, g, b);
 

'colour' and 'colourvar' are just unsigned longs and GetR/G/BValue are just simple Window's Macros (#define GetRValue(rgb) (LOBYTE(rgb)) //etc...)

In what way does that code 'loop'? Does it jump back to line 1 after executing
line 3? Are you accidentally invoking recursion? (what's the name of your
method that executes this snippet of code?)

kind regards,
