Of a program, to run with no indication of progress and perhaps without guarantee of ever finishing especially said of programs thought to be executing a ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=tight loop">tight loop of code. A program that is buzzing appears to be ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=catatonic">catatonic, but never gets out of catatonia, while a buzzing loop may eventually end of its own accord. "The program buzzes for about 10 seconds trying to sort all the names into order." See ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=spin">spin see also ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=grovel">grovel. 2.

To process an ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=array">array or list in sequence, doing the same thing to each element. "This loop buzzes through the tz array looking for a terminator type." [ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Jargon File">Jargon File]
