The for construct

The most popular loop in the language is the for loop, which handles complications by maintaining the number of executions of the loop efficiently within the block itself:

for (initialization; condition; update)
{
  /* loop body */
}

The for loop has a few sections in the criteria. Each of these is separated by a semicolon (;). The first portion defines the index variable, which is executed once before executing the loop. The second portion is the condition that is executed in every iteration of the for loop. If the condition becomes false, the for loop doesn't continue its execution and stops. The third portion is also executed after every execution of the loop body and it manipulates the variable that was used in the for loop initialization and condition.
