To my opinion, "do while" looks friendly to the readers as we always use it in the macros.

To my opinion, "do while" looks friendly to the readers as we always use it in the macros. Only "{}" looks missing a function name or a "for ()" :) > I found '{ }' more clear but no strong opinion, perhaps a comment to clarify to intention can be good but that also looks like optional, so up to you.
