The 'while' +statement can be interpreted as "while <condition> is true, perform <statement>". +It is a pretest loop, meaning the conditional expression is tested before any of the +statements in the body of the loop are performed. If the condition evaluates to +false, the statement(s) in the body of the loop is/are never executed. If the +condition evaluates to true, the statement(s) are executed, then control transfers +back to the conditional expression, which is reevaluated and the cycle continues. + +Multiple statements can be grouped with { }, curly braces, just like with the 'if' statement. + +Example 1: + while (switch(select("Yes:No") == 2 )) + mes "You picked no."; + +Example 2: multiple statements + while (switch(select("Yes:No") == 2 )) { + mes "Why did you pick no?"; + mes "You should pick yes instead!"; + } + +Example 3: counter-controlled loop + set .@i, 1; + while (.@i <= 5) { + mes "This line will print 5 times."; + set .@i, .@i +1; + } + +Example 4: sentinel-controlled loop + mes "Input 0 to stop"; + input .@num; + while (.@num != 0) { + mes "You entered " + .@num; + input .@num; + } + close; + +--------------------------------------- + +*for (<variable initialization>; <condition>; <variable update>) <statement>; + +Another pretest looping structure is the 'for' statement. It is considered a +specialized form of the 'while' statement, and is usually associated with counter- +controlled loops. Here are the steps of the 'for' statement: the initialize +statement is executed first and only once. The condition test is performed. +When the condition evaluates to false, the rest of the for statement is skipped. +When the condition evaluates to true, the body of the loop is executed, then the +update statement is executed (this usually involves incrementing a variable). +Then the condition is reevaluated and the cycle continues. + +Example 1: + for( set .@i, 1; .@i <= 5; set .@i, .@i +1 ) + mes "This line will print 5 times."; + +Example 2: + mes "This will print the numbers 1 - 5."; + for( set .@i, 1; .@i <= 5; set .@i, .@i +1 ) + mes .@i; + +--------------------------------------- + +*do { <statement>; } while (<condition>); + +The 'do...while' is the only posttest loop structure available in this script +language. With a posttest, the statements are executed once before the condition +is tested. When the condition is true, the statement(s) are repeated. When the +condition is false, control is transferred to the statement following the +'do...while' loop expression. + +Example 1: sentinel-controlled loop + mes "This menu will keep appearing until you pick Cancel"; + do { + set .@menu, select("One:Two:Three:Cancel"); + } while (.@menu != 4); + +Example 2: counter-controlled loop + mes "This will countdown from 10 to 1."; + set .@i, 10; + do { + mes .@i; + set .@i, .@i - 1; + } while (.@i > 0); + +--------------------------------------- + *setarray <array name>[<first value>],<value>{,<value>...<value>}; This command will allow you to quickly fill up an array in one go.
