Can someone please explain this code line to me in a super simple way, and reasons to use it? I'm just starting the code journey

Question

for (int i = 1; i <= maxNumber; ++i)

{

System.out.print(previousNumber+" ");

Answer 1

A For loop is one of the most fundamental concepts in programming. You use it for iterations.

That line of code is telling the computer to set a integer variable name i to 1 and while i is lesser or equal to another variable called maxNumber, that should be defined before, it's going to print the variable previousNumber plus space. The ++1 tells the computer to increment the variable i by 1 after each iteration, in this case, i is equal to 2 now. Then the system checks if the condition (i <= maxNumber) is met. It's not, so it repeats the process until the condition is met.

Thank you man, makes it a bit more clear now. This is a lot of stuff to learn. Overwhelming at times on where to start and what direction to go with things.

Answer 3

The area certainly demand us to be life long learners, but it's certainly worth it. My advice for your is: divide and conquer. Best of luck in your journey.
