For

The for statement lets you repeat a statement a specified number of times.

Heard of single line for? Bet you haven’t 😏

tldr;

• Do repetitive stuff with the for 🏃‍♂️💨
• No variable initialization 😲
• Enter a positive integer 🔢 or pass the pointer 👆 or memory 📦

Repetitive stuff is easy with the for

Infant Lang has one of the easiest for loop constructions. Simply pass a number 🔢 to do a repetitive task for the specified number of times.

You can do crazy stuff with the for loop. For example, move a pointer insanely fast, print a lot of stuff, and check the condition multiple times whether it fulfills or not.

You can also pass the if statement, which gets executed if the condition is fulfilled.

Move Pointers

# Moves the pointer right one by one upto the number in the memory 📦
for memory move pointer right

Check a condition

for pointer if memory == pointer memory = pointer + 1

Print Stuff

for 5 print char 77
for 6 print char 101
for 7 print char 111
for 8 print char 119

danger

The for requires a number to be passed to it. Be it a pointer, memory or arbitrary number. But make sure you don’t pass a negative number. And don't leave it empty either. 🤔 If you did, it throws an error and stops the execution.
