In computer programming, an infinite loop (or endless loop)[1][2] is a sequence of instructions that, as written, will continue endlessly, unless an external intervention occurs, such as turning off power via a switch or pulling a plug. It may be intentional.
There is no general algorithm to determine whether a computer program contains an infinite loop or not; this is the halting problem.
