(→‎"useless" examples?: proposal to _widen_ task requirements to “demonstrate _any_ _kind_ _of_ loop”)
Line 35:
:::: Yeah, well, maybe this is one of those “rare” occasions deleting some content is warranted. Can you ''actually'' argue ''for'' repeating ''umpteen'' times “a <tt>for</tt>-loop can be rewritten as a <tt>while</tt> loop <nowiki><</nowiki>code example>” significantly ''increases'' the value? It rather improves usability to ''omit'' such information. If you can make a good point though, I suggest to deliberately ''widen'' the task’s requirements to “demonstrate ''any kind of'' loop with a specified step width”, so this kind of discussion never pops up again. [[Special: PermaLink/322251|On February 2]] I read “Demonstrate a for-loop […]” and I just couldn’t (and still can’t) subsume [[Loops/While|''<tt>while</tt> loops'']] under the term “[[Loops/For|for-loop]]”, in consequence I deleted those implementations.

:::::It seems you don't understand the point of the site. For each language, show how it's done. For the reader interested in language A, it doesn't matter that something is written for languages B, C... Z. Besides, it's not always a while loop, as I have already explained.
