<code>from</code> takes its initial index from the stack, and performs the nest that follows it repeatedly until the ending condition is satisfiedset to <code>true</code>, incrementing the index at the end of each iteration.
 
<code>index</code> returns the current index.
Line 4,187:
The task states "''in addition to the normal incrementation''" but this is counter-intuitive. To make the loop task compliant you will need to precede <code>f.incr</code> with <code>1+</code> in <code>incr</code>. You will also need to delete the <code>1+</code> before <code>incr</code> in the task code below.
 
The word <code>end</code> sets the ending condition to the boolean it takes from the stack<code>true</code>, so the loop will end at the end of the current iteration if the boolean is <code>true</code>.
 
As with other iterative looping words in Quackery (e.g. <code>times</code>, <code>witheach</code>, etc.) the word <code>done</code> will terminate the current iteration immediately.
