Chapter 13: Programming Features

For

variable, initial value, end value [, increment]

commands or multiple statements

Next

• The increment value can be omitted. The default value is 1.

• For and Next statements must be placed at the beginning of the

line.

• If the comparisons

variable > end value (positive) or variable <

end value (negative) are satisfied, the program will end the loop

and go to the line indicated by the Next command.

• Up to 5 For loops can be nested, though if combined with other

types of loops, the maximum nested loop number may vary due

to the memory capacity.

• It is highly recommended that Label and Goto statements are

not used in For loop structures.

While

conditional statements

commands or multiple statements

WEnd

• While and WEnd statements must be placed at the beginning of

the line.

• Multiple While loops can be nested to within the memory

capacity.

• Conditional statements are evaluated before entering the While

clause.

• It is highly recommended that Label and Goto statements are

not used in While loop structures.

* Up to 8 while loops can be nested, though if combined with

other types of loops, the maximum nested loop number may

vary due to the memory capacity.

Note:

Else clause cannot be omitted when the matching If clause is

contained in a For or a While loop.
