=={{header|Ada}}==
The FOR loop construct in Ada does not give the programmer the ability to directly modify the loop control variable during the execution of the loop. Instead, a valid range must always be provided before entering a loop.
Instead, a valid range must always be provided before entering a loop.
Because exact adherence to the task is impossible, we have three versions to approximate a solution. Looper_1 goes through a range of values which are even. Looper_2 multiples each value by two. Looper_3 most closely adheres to the requirements of this task, and achieves this by using a second range for the indices.

There is no step in the standard numeric range object (a..b and a..!b) in E, which is typically used for numeric iteration.
 
There is no step in the standard numeric range object (a..b and a..!b) in E, which is typically used for numeric iteration. An ordinary while loop can of course be used:
<syntaxhighlight lang="e">var i := 2
 
<lang e>var i := 2
while (i <= 8) {
print(`$i, `)
i += 2
}
println("who do we appreciate?")</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
A programmer frequently in need of iteration with an arbitrary step should define an appropriate range object:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="e">def stepRange(low, high, step) {
def range {
to iterate(f) {
Line 351 ⟶ 1,193:
print(`$i, `)
}
println("who do we appreciate?")</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
The least efficient, but perhaps convenient, solution is to iterate over successive integers and discard undesired ones:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight lang="e">for i ? (i %% 2 <=> 0) in 2..8 {
print(`$i, `)
}
println("who do we appreciate?")</langsyntaxhighlight>

The ability to combine to-by arbitrarily is quite powerful. Yet it can lead to unexpected results. In cases of combined to-by operators the left associativity seems natural where the by is omitted. In cases where the by is used it might seem more natural to be right associative. If in doubt parenthesize.

Note that an expression of the form <code>(start, step) (p. i.) count</code> will generate the specified numbers (<code>p.</code> is J's polynomial primitive, <code>i.</code> is J's index generator). So, to generate the above sequence of integers we could have used:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang=J> 0 2 (p. i.) 5
0 2 4 6 8</syntaxhighlight>
 
Or, using an "actual" for loop:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j"> 3 :0''
r=.$0
for_n. 2 * >: i.4 do.
Line 571 ⟶ 1,602:
' who do we appreciate?' ,~ ":n
)
2 4 6 8 who do we appreciate?</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
That said, note also that J's '''steps''' verb lets us specify how many steps to take:
 
<langsyntaxhighlight Jlang="j"> i:8
_8 _7 _6 _5 _4 _3 _2 _1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
i:8j8
_8 _6 _4 _2 0 2 4 6 8</langsyntaxhighlight>
 
Or, if we prefer, we could borrow the definition of <code>thru</code> from the [[Loops/Downward_for#J|Downward for]] task and then filter for the desired values:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> thru=: <./ + i.@(+*)@-~</syntaxhighlight>
 
Example use:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> (#~ 0 = 2&|) 1 thru 20
2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20
(#~ 0 = 3&|) 1 thru 20
3 6 9 12 15 18
(#~ 1 = 3&|) 1 thru 20
1 4 7 10 13 16 19</syntaxhighlight>
 
And, of course, like filtering in any language, this approach supports non-constant step sizes, either by applying a function to each argument individually:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> (#~ 1&p:) 1 thru 20
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19</syntaxhighlight>
 
Or, by inserting a combining function between each value:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="j"> (-&{.,])/ 1 thru 20
_10 11 _9 12 _8 13 _7 14 _6 15 _5 16 _4 17 _3 18 _2 19 _1 20</syntaxhighlight>
 
Other structural approaches can also be viable...

In a functional idiom of JavaScript, however, we will only be able to compose this computation within the superordinate expressions of our program if it has the the form of an expression returning a value, rather than that of a statement which fires off side-effects but returns no value.
 
Following the example of languages like Haskell and J on this page, we can begin by generating the stepped series as an expression. In functional JavaScript we will typically replace a state-changing loop with a non-mutating map or fold, writing, for example, something like:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="javascript">// range(iMax)
// range(iMin, iMax)
// range(iMin, iMax, dI)
function range() {
var lngArgs = arguments.length,
lngMore = lngArgs - 1;
 
iMin = lngMore ? arguments[0] : 1;
iMax = arguments[lngMore ? 1 : 0];
dI = lngMore > 1 ? arguments[2] : 1;

Str$(i) always return decimal separator as "."
format$() use same as Locale number specify. So here we use "," from Locale 1036. Str$() place a space before number if it is positive. We can use str$(i, "") to trim lead space. Here we use a space in format$ before number (and for negative numbers)
 
For this task we use single float numbers, and we make the loop one time from lower to higher value, and one time form higher to lower value.

=={{header|Raku}}==
(formerly Perl 6)
{{works with|Rakudo|2010.07}}
 
Depending on how you define your terms, this task is either trivial or impossible in Raku. <code>for</code> in Raku doesn't have a step value, it's an iteration operator. It iterates through any iterable object passed to it and sets the topic variable to each iterated value in turn. If you close one eye and squint, I guess you could say it has a step value of 1 (or more accurately, Next) and that isn't really changeable. Whatever iterable you pass to it though can have pretty much any value in pretty much any order you desire, so effectively the "step" value is completely unconstrained.
 
Examples of iterables (not exhaustive):
* Things that do a positional role:
:* Array
:* List
:* Range
:* Sequence
* Things that do an associative role:
:* Bag
:* BagHash
:* Hash
:* Map
:* Mix
:* MixHash
:* QuantHash
:* Set
:* SetHash
 
 
Probably the most straightforward way to do this is with a sequence. With at least two values on the left-hand side, the sequence operator (<code>...</code>) can infer an arithmetic series. (With at least three values, it can infer a geometric sequence, too.)
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="raku" line>for 2, 4 ... 8 {
print "$_, ";
}
say 'whom do we appreciate?';</syntaxhighlight><!-- "Whom" is infinitely more amusing. -->
 
But there is nothing constraining the sequence to a constant step. Here's one with a ''random'' step.
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="raku" line>.say for rand, *+rand-.5 ... *.abs>2</syntaxhighlight>

The built-in ''for''-like form in Scheme is the ''do'' form:

(define (for-loop start end step func)

((>= i 9)) ; exit condition
(display i) ; body
(newline))</syntaxhighlight>
 
Some people prefer to use the recursive-style and more flexible _named let_ form:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="scheme">(let loop ((i 2)) ; function name, parameters and starting values
(cond ((< i 9)
(display i)
(newline)
(loop (+ i 2)))))) ; tail-recursive call, won't create a new stack frame</syntaxhighlight>
 
You can add to the language by wrapping the loop in a function:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="scheme">(define (for-loop start end step func)
(let loop ((i start))
(cond ((< i end)
Line 1,039 ⟶ 2,637:
(lambda (i)
(display i)
(newline)))</syntaxhighlight>
</lang>
 
... or in a macro, which allows for making the <code>(lambda)</code> implicit:

Implementing loops with a step other than one is precisely as easy (or as fiddly) as implementing loops with a step equal to one. This example program uses a loop to perform integer division. It should be run with the dividend in storage location 21 and the divisor in storage location 22. To show that it works, we shall ask the machine to count from 387 in steps of -5 and to halt with the accumulator showing the number of times it has done so before producing a negative result.
