For, % i

06 Sep 2018, 19:02

I sorta feel like this should exist, what do you think?

Code: Select all

i := 4

For, % i
{
	Msgbox, % i
}

I have no clue what that is supposed to do.

Isn’t that just a Loop?

eh:

Code: Select all

i := 4

Loop, % i
{
	Msgbox, % A_Index
}

Whatever seems like a good idea.

Code: Select all

i := 4

For, i
{	; i := 1,     i := 2,     i := 3,     i := 4, 
	Msgbox, % i
}

Code: Select all

i := 4
iG := [7,8,9]

For, i in iG
{	; i := 7,     i := 8,     i := 9,
	Msgbox, % i
}

Based on your first code sample there, it seems like you want a Range like in Python, which others have requested before. I don't see its benefit.

Your second code sample is already a supported feature of the language. I'm not sure why you'd define i before the loop unless its used for something else. The comma after the word "For" can also be omitted.

We could remove all other loops while making things more dynamic with range().

I do prefer the for k, v in x syntax over the loop syntax, even though its more typing. Suppose that's enough to change my mind about Range().

Could you put a simple example using the For command with an array in the doc? That's all I ask for.
