Description |
The description of the loop. |
|
Initialization |
Set the control variable for the loop to the value it should have when the loop begins running. For example, if the control variable is called counter, the following line of code would initialize it to the value one: counter = 1 |
|
Step |
Specify an operation for updating the control variable. This operation will be carried out once for each iteration of the loop. For example, the step you specify could be to add one to the value of counter: counter = counter + 1 –or– counter ++ |
|
Expression |
Specify the state that the control variable should be in for the loop to continue running. The expression should normally be a logical condition, and when this condition is FALSE, running the loop ends. |
