Overview

A for statement specifies repeated execution of a block. For more details on blocks, see Go blocks.

The iteration is controlled by a condition, a "for" clause, or a "range" clause.

for Controlled by a Condition

for a < b {
    a *= 2
}

The condition is evaluated before each iteration. If the condition is absent, is equivalent with true.

for {
    // do this forever
}
