Variables as loop or event counters

Variables can be incremented or decremented to serve as loop or
event counters. Incrementing a variable increases its value by a
specified amount at each increment. Typically, a variable is
incremented or decremented each time a loop is executed or an event
occurs, and its value is tested to determine if the required number of
loops or events have taken place.

A = Var1()

Assigns the value of Var1 to dimension A.

Syntax for incrementing the value of a variable

Var#(Var#() + increment value)

Example:

Var1(Var1()+1)

Increments the value of variable Var1 by one.

Syntax for decrementing the value of a variable

Var#(Var#() - increment value)

Example:

Var1(Var1()-1)

Decrements the value of variable Var1 by one.
