Programming 612
When For is executed, the variable value is compared to the end value. If variable does
not exceed end, the loop is executed; otherwise, program control jumps to the command
following
EndFor.
Note: The For command automatically increments the counter variable so that the
program can exit the loop after a certain number of repetitions.
At the end of the loop (
EndFor), program control jumps back to the For command, where
variable is incremented and compared to
end.
For example:
Ê
Displays 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Ë Displays 6. When variable increments to 6, the loop is not executed.
Note:
You can declare the counter variable as local if it does not need to be saved after
the program stops.
