| #Additional algorithm 24. The for-loop cycle for incrementing some simple variables is demonstrated. Specifically, two variables a and b are declared and initialized. The variable a is initialized to the integer five and the variable b is set to zero. The for-loop is then declared to start at the initial value of i and end at the value indicated by variable a. At each increment, the value in variable i is added to the numeric value stored in variable b. At the end of the loop, the final value stored in variable b is printed to the output for inspection. Note that the source code is in context and works with copy/paste. | |
