Well the end result should be that there is only one error, `while` outside of function, because that explains everything the user needs to know.

It would be strange to report the `expected identifier or ...` error in addition to this one, it would be just noise.

How to go about implementing that I leave it up to you :P
Unless you need some specific help of course.
