One thing that I often find not handy in the design of do-while loops: the scope of their 
body ends before the "while":


void main() {
     do {
         int x = 5;
     } while (x != 5); // Error: undefined identifier x
}

I would just rewrite it like so:

void main(){
        while(true){
                int x = 5;
                if(x != 5) continue;
                break;
        }
}
