Small Basic For Loops: Control Variable Warning

  • Artikel

Although you can change the loop’s control variable in the body of the loop, we highly recommend that you don’t! Check out this program:

For N = 1 To 10

TextWindow.WriteLine("Inside loop: N = " + N)
N = N + 5

EndFor

TextWindow.WriteLine("After loop: N = " + N)

      

Here’s the output you’d get:

Inside loop: N = 1

Inside loop: N = 7

After loop: N = 13

Changing the loop counter (Line 3) caused the loop to go for two rounds only (instead of 10). Unless you have a compelling reason to tamper with the loop’s counter, please don’t! And don’t tamper with mattress tags!
