Loop control

TSL has familiar constructs for doing things repetitively and/or until an expression evaluates to
false.
Something to iterate
list = {"One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five", "Six"}
--
-------------------------------- FOR loop ----------------------------
--
print(
for element = 1, 3 do
print(element, list[element])
end
print("Counting from one to four,")
print("in steps of two:")
for element = 1, 4, 2 do
print(element, list[element])
end
--
-------------------------------- WHILE loop --------------------------
--
print("Count elements in list")
print("on numeric index")
element = 1
while list[element] do
print(element, list[element])
element = element + 1
end
--
-------------------------------- REPEAT loop -------------------------
--
print("Count elements in list")
print("using repeat")
element = 1
repeat
print(element, list[element])
