For loop will repeat as many times as you specify:
for( int x = 0; x < 5; x++ )
{
print x
}
This loop will run until the condition x < 5 is satisfied and print numbers 0 to 4.
One thing that often causes trouble is endless loops. The following code:
for( int x = 0; x == 5; x=x+2 )
{
print x
}
will print 0, 2, 4, 6, 8… and it will never hit x==5 condition that should cause it to stop.
Avoid creating endless loops, especially in critical apps where the computer is controlling machines or other external processes.
