Editing Conditional loop (section)

===For loop===
A simplified way to create a while loop.<ref>{{Cite web |title=for loop - cppreference.com |url=https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/for |access-date=2023-11-07 |website=en.cppreference.com}}</ref>

<syntaxhighlight lang="c++">
for (initialization; condition; statement) {
    // code
}
</syntaxhighlight>

'''Initialization''' is executed just once before the loop. '''Condition''' evaluates the boolean expression of the loop. '''Statement''' is executed at the end of every loop.

So for example, the following while loop:

<syntaxhighlight lang="c++">
int i = 0;

while (i < 10) {
    // code
    
    i += 1;
}
</syntaxhighlight>

Could be written as the following for loop:

<syntaxhighlight lang="c++">
for (int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
    // code
}
</syntaxhighlight>
