00:00 | The basic principle of for loops is that it will repeat a block of code the number of times you specify, using not only a condition but also the initialization in the beginning and the increment at the end. |
00:18 | So, how much you want to increment your variable determines the number of times your variable loops by. |
00:38 | So, it is a bit more complex to write. However, it looks good; it does the job and it's very compact. |
00:43 | Now we write for. |
00:53 | So, you have got three parts of your code here and your block and that is all you need and your content can go here. |
01:03 | So, I am going to say echo here and let us create a variable '$num'. So, we have echoed out num. |
01:13 | In here, we write $num =1, not '= = 1' because we are setting the variable 'num' to the value of 1. |
01:22 | Then we have a condition. For eg, while $num <= 10. |
01:31 | Then, we have the increment values. So, we are going to have num ++ and the loop is done. |
01:37 | So, we type for and our variable $num=1. |
01:47 | Then we have our condition: while $num is less than or equal to (<=) 10, the loop will continue and then we have num ++. |
01:52 | As you can see, this is much more useful than having num ++ down below |
01:55 | and we need not declare this up here. |
01:59 | It can also be declared inside these parentheses. |
02:02 | O.K., I forgot the line-break. |
02:07 | I’ll just add the line-break ( ) to the end of this. |
02:10 | Refresh. |
02:12 | And there you go. |
02:17 | You have your loop ten times. |
02:25 | And, as it has been specified in such a way, it will loop only when 'num' is less than or equal to 10. |
02:28 | After that the loop will break and you may continue with the rest of the script. |
02:36 | This is a bit more complex but once you learn the basics you will find it a lot easier . |
02:37 | Thanks for watching. |
