Explain the for statement again, I could make something good

[Hblade]

Hey, I've figured out how to make the Perfect HP bar, and it reads pixel by pixel But I need to know how to use the for statement so that I can make the HP bar fill up instatnly instead of slowly filling up
I need this transformed into a for statement

Code: Select all

if (i<hp)
{
    setpen(0, 255, 255, 0, 3);
    moveto(i, 0);
    lineto(i, height-1);
    i++;
}

I know I'm not the only one who knows how to use a for loop.. :p

For has three arguments. First is initial value, second is exit condition, third is what to do to the variable each iteration. So for example

for(i=0;i<10;i++){
Do stuff here;}

i starts at zero, gets +1 every iteration, and the loop ends when i is no longer less than 10, hope that helps

Yeah I figured it out like 5 mins after this post by looking at one of my older topics
