Actually, no. Since the read() will fail at some point in the loop
[unless the input is *really* long!], the expression as a whole will
fail (without even calling word_length()) and the loop will terminate.
The stop("Bye") is the big problem.
There are also issues with the way the word-count loop is implemented,
it fails to count accurately on all sorts of input!
