Really thanx, now I can proceed further with my js lessons.

Answer 2

Prathamesh Sawant Marks for the “for” statement definition is refering to everything inside the for loop.

As the block of code is the for loop and the statements are inside it.

So all the statements in the for loop are executed if the condition is true.

Answer 3

Can I say "Executes a block of statements to be executed, as long as condition is true."?

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

Is that a coding term? I am learning to code online, even though I understand lot of logical stuff, it sometimes gets difficult to understand meaning of such simple terms.

They should have instead said, "Executes a block of statements inside a loop as long as condition is true." simple english.

'Mark’ is not a coding term
It is just used to help understand
