Summary

In this blog post, we will explore how to use a for loop to iterate through numbers in Apps Script. We will learn how to set the initial value, condition, and increment of the loop, and how to perform actions within the loop.

Code

Code Explanation

The code defines a function named forIteration. Inside the function, a for loop is used to iterate through numbers from 1 to 10.

Within the loop, the value of i is logged using the Logger.log statement.

In the for (let i = 1; i < 11; i++) part, let i = 1 is called the initial expression, i < is the conditional expression, and i++ is the increment expression. The value of the initial expression is compared with the conditional expression, and if it is true, the logger inside the braces is executed, and the increment expression is executed. Compare the increased i = 2 with the conditional expression and repeat the same process.

Example

When you run the forIteration function, the numbers from 1 to 10 will be logged in the Apps Script Logger.

AI Prompt

Write a function that uses a for loop to iterate through numbers from 1 to 10. Log each number using the Logger.log statement.
