<H2>FOR For Loop
</H2>
<P>
Section: <A HREF=sec_flow.html> Flow Control </A>
<H3>Usage</H3>
The <code>for</code> loop executes a set of statements with an 
index variable looping through each element in a vector.
The syntax of a <code>for</code> loop is one of the following:
<PRE>
  for (variable=expression)
     statements
  end
</PRE>
<P>
Alternately, the parenthesis can be eliminated
<PRE>
  for variable=expression
     statements
  end
</PRE>
<P>
or alternately, the index variable can be pre-initialized
with the vector of values it is going to take:
<PRE>
  for variable
     statements
  end
</PRE>
<P>
The third form is essentially equivalent to <code>for variable=variable</code>,
where <code>variable</code> is both the index variable and the set of values
over which the for loop executes.  See the examples section for
an example of this form of the <code>for</code> loop.
<H3>Examples</H3>
Here we write <code>for</code> loops to add all the integers from
<code>1</code> to <code>100</code>.  We will use all three forms of the <code>for</code>
statement.
<PRE>
--&gt; accum = 0;
--&gt; for (i=1:100); accum = accum + i; end
--&gt; accum

ans = 
 5050 
</PRE>
<P>
The second form is functionally the same, without the
extra parenthesis
<PRE>
--&gt; accum = 0;
--&gt; for i=1:100; accum = accum + i; end
--&gt; accum

ans = 
 5050 
</PRE>
<P>
In the third example, we pre-initialize the loop variable
with the values it is to take
<PRE>
