A “For Loop” executes a block of code a specific number of times or while a specified condition is true.

PHP For Loop

for (init; condition; increment)
  {
  code to be executed;
  }

php fOR lOOP PARAMETERS

• init: Mostly used to set a counter (but can be any code to be executed once at the beginning of the loop)
• condition: Evaluated for each loop iteration. If it evaluates to TRUE, the loop continues. If it evaluates to FALSE, the loop ends.
• increment: Mostly used to increment a counter (but can be any code to be executed at the end of the iteration)

Note: The init and increment parameters above can be empty or have multiple expressions (separated by commas). Example The example below defines a loop that starts with i=1. The loop will continue to run as long as the variable i is less than, or equal to 5. The variable i will increase by 1 each time the loop runs:

PHP For Loop Example Code

<?php
for ($i=1; $i<=5; $i++)
  {
  echo("The number is " . $i . "<br>");
  }
?>

Classic ASP For Loop Example Code

<%
For i = 1 to 5
 Response.Write("The number is " & i & "<br>")
Next
%>

JavaScript For Loop Example

<%
For i = 1 to 5
 Response.Write("The number is " & i & "<br>")
Next
%>

C# For Loop Example

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) 
      {
        Console.WriteLine(i);
      }    

Python For Loop Example

states = ["Alaska", "Alabama", "Arkansas"]
for x in states:
  print(x) 
  if x == "Alabama":
    break
