The for statement is used when you know how many times you want to execute a statement or a block of statements.

The for loop - Loops through a block of code a specified number of times.


for (init counter; test counter; increment counter) {
  code to be executed for each iteration;
}

init counter : Initialize the loop counter value

test counter : Evaluated for each loop iteration. If it evaluates to TRUE, the loop continues.

increment counter : Increases the loop counter value

Let's put these syntax into real use.


<?php 
for ($x = 10; $x <= 20; $x++) {
 echo "Number = $x <br>";
} 
?>

This will produce the following result −

Number = 10

Number = 11

Number = 12

Number = 13

Number = 14

Number = 15

Number = 16

Number = 17

Number = 18

Number = 19

Number = 20
