For

Synopsis

for {variable} {start} {end} { }

Description

The for command controls a loop that iterates a variable over a range of numbers. Both positive and negative iterations are legal.

The variable is assigned the starting number to begin with. After each iteration it either increments or decrements the variable, until it reaches the ending number.

Note:

In EasyUO 1.4, you must use brackets, even if there is only a single line of code in a for loop. In EasyUO 1.5 however, brackets are optional when the for loop is only a single line of code.

Example

for %i 1 20
{
	msg %i $
	wait 10
}
halt
