If my information is correct I am using AT&T c++ 1.2 and I ran into this problem trying to compile. while ( ( (int tries=numberoftries()) != 0 ) ) does not compile but int tries; while ( (tries=numberoftries())!=0) does. I have also tried many small variations on the problem and have found that the problem lies in whether I have the "int" in the while line. No matter where I put the parentheses. Why is this or is it a bug? -ben
