// For loops also let you use the "index" of the iteration, a number
|
|
// that counts up with each iteration. To access the index of iteration,
|
|
// specify a second condition as well as a second capture value.
|
|
//
|
|
// for (items, 0..) |item, index| {
|
|
//
|
|
// // Do something with item and index
|
|
//
|
|
// }
|
|
//
|
|
// You can name "item" and "index" anything you want. "i" is a popular
|
|
// shortening of "index". The item name is often the singular form of
|
|
// the items you're looping through.
