for Loop in Go

May 5, 2022 Go

In this post, you will learn how to work with the for loop so that you can use that same knowledge and thus evolve.

a cycle allows executing an instruction or a set of instructions several times;
there are three types of a for cycle and it loops (iterates) according to a given range and/or a given condition (it must be true);
it’s important to know that an infinite loop happens whenever a certain condition doesn’t stop being true and this boils down to a loop that keeps on iterating.

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
	// schoolSupplies := [...]string { "Backpack", "Case", "Pencil", "Eraser", "Sharpen", "Scissors" }

	/*
    fmt.Println(schoolSupplies[0]);
	  fmt.Println(schoolSupplies[1]);

    for index := 0; index < len(schoolSupplies); index++ {
		  fmt.Printf("schoolSupplies[%d]: %s\n", index, schoolSupplies[index])

	  for index, schoolSupply := range schoolSupplies {
		  fmt.Printf("schoolSupplies[%d]: %s\n", index, schoolSupply)
	  }
  */

	number := 1

	for (number <= 10) {
		fmt.Printf("Number: %d\n", number)
		number++
	}
}

/*
  Number: 1
  Number: 2
  Number: 3
  Number: 4
  Number: 5
  Number: 6
  Number: 7
  Number: 8
  Number: 9
  Number: 10
