Sorry that seemed the case! I use exclamations to show positivity, not sarcasm. Thanks for the solution!

Actually, that wasn’t sarcastic in the least, I just somehow skipped over that in my brain... you can choose to take offense to something that is nothing, but hey! I can’t make that decision for you.

You can use them in loops for iterations.

You are liking your own answers and being sarcastic with your last answer. You seem wise enough to ask a decent question with some code terminology yet you do not comprehend an "iteration"?

All your exclamations suggest sarcasm. I apologize if that's not the case. Yes, increments and decrements are used for repetitive runs (iterations) inside loops until the end result has been achieved.
