<code>index</code> returns the current index.
 
The default increment is <code>1</code>, but this can be overridden for a single iteration by the word <code>incr</code> within the nest being performed by <code>from</code>. <code>incr</code> takes a number from the stack, and sets the next incrementationincrement to be that number ''plusfor 1''the current iteration. ThisIf may<code>incr</code> seemis counter-intuitive,performed within some iterations but thenot taskall, statesthe "''inincrement additionwill tobe the<code>1</code> normalfor incrementation''"those and,iterations hey,where a specificationit is anot specificationperformed.
 
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 <code>true</code>, so the loop will end at the end of the current iteration.
 
The word <code>end</code> sets the ending condition to <code>true</code>the boolean it takes from the stack, 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.
