Answer / priyanka
Para1 would be executed 1 time. after 1st time the value of
a is 10 and it comes out of loop.
it move 1 to a and stop execution.

Just once. The 'move 1 to a' is not in the para1. So its is NOT infinite loop.

Answer / vinod
it dirctly move 10 to a when perform para1 until a=10
after that it moves to the para the condition is checked
and pass the a value to 10.
again the perform is check the condion its true move the
value to 1.agin it passes the same so it is a infinite loop.
