Loop

Generates a sequence with variables to loop over. The variable names can be set with variableLoop... and the current values are assigned to the variables for each loop step.

With condition only a subset of loop steps are performed. The variableLoopIndex and variableLoopCount are not affected by the condition. The result would therefore be the same as using LoopPrograms with a nested IfPrograms.

See Loop and conditions for usage.
