Help me out with this for loop

Solar2D Lua Language
#1

In JS I can create a for loop with multiple variables and conditions. For example:

for (i = 17, k = 17; i \> -1 && f \< 4; --i, --k) {
...
}

Is something like this possible with Lua? [import]uid: 98652 topic_id: 18966 reply_id: 318966[/import]

yes. [import]uid: 19193 topic_id: 18966 reply_id: 73052[/import]

See here for more info on lua for loops: http://www.lua.org/pil/4.3.4.html [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 18966 reply_id: 73226[/import]

I don’t think you can write that loop in Lua using the same concept of having the loop do the iterations for you.

But you can do this…

[code]
k = 17
for i = k, 0, -1 do
k = i
…
if f < 4 then
break – assuming your manipulating f in the loop.
end
end
