#Whalie - Halie Style While Loops
*Are while loops not exotic enough for you? Have you ever wanted to make
debugging your software much harder for no real reason? Are you a mechanical
engineer and have misinterpreted what a while loop actually does and want to
emulate your dreams?*
If any of those apply to you, you still shouldn't use this module.
To use whalie loops, import the module and haliese your code.
```python
import whalie
whalie.halieise(__file__)
```
Now, instead of the contents of `while` loops executing while the condition is
`True`, they will now loop only while the condition is still being calculated.
#Example
```python
#test.py
import time
import whalie
whalie.halieise(__file__)
def long_thing():
print 'starting long thing'
time.sleep(4)
print 'ended long thing'
while long_thing():
time.sleep(0.5)
print 'doing something'
print 'ended program'
```
```bash
$ python test.py
starting long thing
doing something
doing something
doing something
doing something
doing something
doing something
doing something
ended long thing
doing something
ended program
```
