Question

Is there a way to cut off a for-loop before it cycles all the way through?

Answer 1

Technically, yes, there is a way. Depending on what you are asking, either the continue or break commands might be what you are thinking of.

HOWEVER, using these commands inside of FOR loop is almost always a sign of poor coding style. Why can't you just have the FOR loop go fewer cycles instead, by changing the condition (i.e. i <= 5 instead of i <= 7)?

Answer 2

Are you talking about infinite loops?

No, I'm just wondering if there's a way that a normal for-loop can be cut off at a certain point.
