FOR STATEMENT

[Jerry123]

What does the FOR STATEMENT actually do?

 

for  =  to  // step 1end // for

A for loop runs over and over again, storing the times it has run in the variable until it gets to a certain number.

 

 

for [email protected] = 0 to 10   wait 1000end

 

 

In the example, there will be a 10 second wait... The [email protected] starts off with an initial value of 0 and then (by the end of the loop) has a value of 10.

 

You can also do the operation in reverse...

 

 

for [email protected] = 10 downto 0   wait 1000end

 

 

Which means the variable has an initial value of 10 and counts down to 0.

 

This kind of loop is good for working with arrays.
