for
for — checks a condition and performs a statement.
Syntax
for (setup ; condition ; iteration) statement
Arguments
- setup
- An iteration setup, usually a variable with an initial value.
- condition
- The condition to test.
- iteration
- Any Gamma expression, usually used to increment the variable in setup.
- statement

Description
This statement is essentially identical to a for loop in
C, and the syntax is the same. It checks a condition
iteratively, and executes a statement when the
condition is true.
Example
This for
loop counts from 0 to 10, printing out the value of i as it
loops.
for (i=0;i<=10;i++)
{
princ("value of i: ", i, "\n");
}
