  3. C shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_shell

    The Unix system had been written almost exclusively in C, so the C shell's first objective was a command language that was more stylistically consistent with the rest of the system. The keywords, the use of parentheses, and the C shell's built-in expression grammar and support for arrays were all strongly influenced by C.

  4. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    In computer science, a for-loop or for loop is a control flow statement for specifying iteration. Specifically, a for-loop functions by running a section of code repeatedly until a certain condition has been satisfied. For-loops have two parts: a header and a body. The header defines the iteration and the body is the code executed once per ...

    The term is also used more generally to mean the automated mode of running an operating system shell; each operating system uses a particular name for these functions including batch files (MSDos-Win95 stream, OS/2), command procedures (VMS), and shell scripts (Windows NT stream and third-party derivatives like 4NT—article is at cmd.exe), and ...

  7. Event loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_loop

    The event-loop may be used in conjunction with a reactor, if the event provider follows the file interface, which can be selected or 'polled' (the Unix system call, not actual polling). The event loop almost always operates asynchronously with the message originator.

  8. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Sometimes within the body of a loop there is a desire to skip the remainder of the loop body and continue with the next iteration of the loop. Some languages provide a statement such as continue (most languages), skip , [ 8 ] cycle (Fortran), or next (Perl and Ruby), which will do this.

  9. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    The loop calls the Iterator::next method on the iterator before executing the loop body. If Iterator::next returns Some(_), the value inside is assigned to the pattern and the loop body is executed; if it returns None, the loop is terminated.
