Subject: for loops with stride
Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 22:21:21 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <13935.15218.91076.707446@hadar.cs.Buffalo.EDU> (raw)
Thanks to everyone who responded to my earlier question re:
composition. Quite enlightening discussion... 8-)
On a hopefully less controversial note, I'd like to make a suggestion
for an addition to OCaml for-loops. Consider an optional stride
parameter, as in:
for i = 0 to n-1 by stride do
...
done
At least in certain signal processing code that I'm working with
presently, the above is a common (and highly convenient) pattern. The
corresponding while loop is simply not as easy to write or understand.
Thanks,
John
