Bug: Nested "for x times loops" not working
Basically, next nested for x times loops don't work as you'd expect in decent for-loop coding, as if the increment variable is shared between the two.
Likely culprit: When the exterior loop loops once, the 'loop count' is set to whatever loop count is the first one, but said value is overwritten by for x times loop(s) within said for loop, either leading to a bodged forever loop or a loop 1 times loop as the exterior loop.
Java example:
//Java "loop forever" for loop example
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
//The variable i is overwritten, reaches 6 and then the main loop is run again, and again, etc.
do(x);
}
}
//Java "loop for 1 times" for loop example
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
for (int i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
//The variable I is overwritten, reaches 12 and then the main loop is skipped
do(x);
}
}
Hope the description and possible reason helps; I don't know very much C, but Java is a close-enough language for it to be fairly easily translatable into C.
