Re: For Loop

Did the program crash, or go into an endless loop? I would have expected an endless loop, but I am wrong so often I decided to ask.

Hi everyone,

A coworker got caught out by the For EndFor loop.

D wI S 3 0

For wI = 1 to %elem(arrayWith999Elements)

etc.
EndFor;

I said it was normal at the end that wI should be incremented to 1000,
thus making the program crash.

I wondered what the normal way would be to avoid this. I always use 5I
0 for my array index.
The coworker changed the DIM setting to 998!
