when does a for( loop stop? Does it stop when the third argument is greater than or equal to the first variable, since it loops and increments. ie:
syntax:
for(variable,starting,end
and will anything within the loop execute if its like this:
for(X,1,1

you have to do
For(X,A,B //B has to be greater than A
so this would work
For(X,1,2
Code

wrong
u can do For(X,10,1,-1
and even For(X,10,1 will execute once
rule: all for loop will always execute once
here is how they work:
variables will be referred to like this: For(X,A,B[,C] (C is 1 if unspecified)
A->X
:loop
go through loop
X+C->X
if X>B, stop
else, goto loop |
