// Loop1.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
// Loop test 1

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include "cstdlib"
#include "sstream"
#include "string"

using namespace std;

void GNumber(void)
{
   int a, b, c;
   a=0;
   b=0;
   c=0;

   while (1)

	   do
	   {
       cout<<endl<<"Arvaa luku!"<<"huom. 0-10000"<<endl;
	   cin>>a;
	          if (a==666)
			  {
			  cout<<endl<<"Hienoa! Arvasit oikein!"<<endl;
			  break;
			   }
			  else
			  {
			  cout<<endl<<"Wrong! yritä uudelleen."<<endl;
			  continue;			 
			  }	  
	   }  
}	   
 

int main()
{
	int x;
	cout<<"       initializing..."<<"   Test loop 1 Loop1 V. 0.1 BETA"<<endl;
	cout<<endl;
	cout<<"Tervetuloa Loputtomaan Loppiin, joka on minun harjoittelu-ohjelma."<<endl;
	cout<<"kun arvaat luvun oikein, pääset pois."<<endl;
	GNumber();
	cout<<endl;
	cout<<"Paina Enteriä lopettaaksesi"<<endl;
	cin>>x;
	return 0;

    //loppu!
 }

I tryed a few things myself, but they didn't help.

The problem is the while loop.
Syntax should be
1
2
3
4
 
do
{
    //Code to be repeated here
} while (1);
