start-loop - (program-flow)

start-loop will execute code between start-loop and "end-loop" clauses certain number of times based on a condition specified and the usage of continue-loop and break-loop, which can be used in-between the two. <repeat> number (in "repeat" clause) specifies how many times to execute the loop (barring use of continue-loop and break-loop). <loop counter> (in "use" clause) is a number that by default starts with value of 1, and is incremented by 1 each time execution loops back to start-loop, unless "start-with" and/or "add" clauses are used. The end value of <loop counter> (just outside "end-loop") is the first value past the last loop. If <start with> (in "start-with" clause) is used, that's the initial value for <loop counter> (instead of the default 1), and if <add> is specified (in "add" clause), then <loop counter> is incremented by <add> each time execution loops back to start-loop (instead of the default 1). <add> can be positive or negative. If either of "start-with" or "add" clauses is used, then "use" must be specified.
