Ideas in this flowchart
- C does not support a traditional foreach loop
- Arrays are conventionally traversed by iterating an index variable with a for loop
- Syntactic techniques can produce an effect similar to foreach
- The example uses an array of three double values
- The variable n stores the number of elements, and i starts at zero
- The loop assigns an array element to the variable x
- The initialization sets x to the first element, arr[0]
- The loop continues while the index is less than n
- Each iteration assigns x to the next array element
- The index variable is incremented at the same time
- The prefix increment operator ++i advances the index before the next access
