| Function:
|
|
| while :: IO Bool -> IO () -> IO ()
|
| while test action = do res <- test
|                         if res  then do action
|                                         while test action
|                                 else return ()

Haskell uses "layout" to reduce the need for parentheses.  For your code to
parse, "if" should align with "res" vertically, as in:

 ... = do res <- test
          if res ...
