Print inside a loop does not work!

[Buba Akhrakhadze]

Hello, can someone explain to me why this does not work?

void OnTick()

  {

myfunction();

  }

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

void myfunction()
  {

for( int i = 5; i == 0; i--)

           Print("LL" + i);

  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

Because i==0 is false from the start and the loop is never executed.

You should use i>=0

It works as you wrote it.

For loop documentation

Loop runs while condition is true.

In your case it goes like this:

• set i = 5
• if i == 0 
• print
• else
• exit loop
• decrement i

for loop is running while condition is true, not until condition becomes true.
