infinite loop not infinite

[technologist]

The following loop works as expected: infinite looping:

bool loop = true;
	while (loop)
	{
		std::cout << "Infinite Loop" << std::endl;
	}
	

the following does not; it hits loop broken immediately. Can someone why this loop isn't working?

bool loop = true;

if (loop == true)
	{
		std::cout << "Infinite loop" << std::endl;
	}

	std::cout << "loop broken" << std::endl;

The second isn't a loop. It's an if statement.
It seems incredible that you don't know this after 554 posts.

Lol simple mistake. Brain farts happen to all of us, OP.
