#91 Looping Function?

[Anonymous]

I would really like to see the ability to program
loops into functions. I have written hundreds of
functions and the one thing that makes it difficult
is the inability to loop. For example, being able to
specify a loop variable as you would with a 'for'
loop in C.
listA=[1:3:5:2:6:8]
listB = range(12:0:0)
for(i = 0;i <= dim(listA);i=i+1:"listB[i]=listA
[i+6])
It would be most useful.
Thanks
