Are you sure you did it well?
carac2 = carac2 div 100 - I'm assuming I see the division, rigth? Then go study math - the division will never give you 0 (in the integers ring) - and you check for 0 in while loop - endless cycle.
There's something here I don't understand...
Let's assume carac2 enters the loop with 1000.
After line 1, let's say 1050.
Line 2 will produce 50, line 3 will produce 10.
In the second iteration, line 1 might give 67 (added 57 this time), line 2 = 57, line 3 = ..... 0.

Each iteration adds a (small) amount to carac2, then shifts it right by 2 decimal places, eventually resulting in 0. Does it not?
