shouldn't the correct term for this be "infinite loops"? If I search

I think Delphi uses the "circle" terminology. Can´t confirm right now,
because i don´t have it installed here.
Can anyone test it and report here?
About the graph theory, can anyone point me a document or link? Just want
to take a look.

There exist several idioms:
"circular [unit] references" leading to *wrong* "circle ..."
"loop" (endless loop) in code execution or unit references
