 Module 0

The for loop executes a block of code repeatedly until the specified

expression evaluates to false. You can define a for loop as follows.
Introducing
C++
for ([initializer(s)]; [condition]; [iterator])

 Module 3
The [initializer(s)] portion is used to initialize a value, or values,

as a counter for the loop. On each iteration, the loop checks that the

value of the counter is within the range to execute the for loop, specified
C++ Operators in the [condition] portion., and if so, execute the body of the loop.   At
then end of each loop iteration, the [iterator] section is responsible

for incrementing the loop counter.
