I understand how to use a for loop like
for (x = 0 ; x<5 ; x++ ) { // some_code }
in C++ but what about a for loop like
f
The closest equivalent is a range based for-loop. For example,
auto y = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}; for (auto i : y) { // do something with i }
There are more details, but these depend on what you want to do. The C++ semantics are quite different to python's.
