You do not mention the programming language you intend to use. The implementation of looping constructs differs from one programming language to another. For instance, in the 'C' programming language, you might do something like the following:
for(;;) {
/* Some code or other would go here to do something. */
}
The above indicates an 'Endless Loop' in 'C'.
If programming in Ruby, Basic, Fortran, Perl, Python, PHP, Shell, Awk (including Nawk and Gawk) or one of the many other programming languages available on Unix/Linux systems, your 'for' loop may look very different. [JMH]
