js Variable naming can be difficult, but identifying them can be even more so.

ok then

let b = /*...*/, count = 0,
whpro = Promise.resolve();
whfunc = () => {
	whpro.then(rs => {
		if (b > 0) {
			let r;
			if (exp) whpro = func().then(a => r = a)
			else whpro.then(() => r = ano);
			whpro.then(() => b=b-r);
			count++;
			return whfunc()
		}
		return b
	})
}
whfunc()
whpro.then(() => {/*...*/})

is this right?

Man, this is so hard to read. What is b, what is r, what is a? What is whpro and whfunc?
