Hello -
    Im new to programming.  I wondering why I can't get this code to
count backwards form 6 to 0 and exit.  I will start at 6, and go down to
negitives (becuase it's a "int").  I was told that it could be done in a
while loop.  not a do while.  Any suggestions?


Thanx in advance.

Jason Mullins

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int count;
int cycle;
    cycle = 0;
    count = 6;
    while (count <= 6, cycle = 6)
    {
        printf("The value of count is %d\n");
        count = count--;
        cycle = cycle++;
     }
     return 0;
}
