for (var i = 0, index = condition ? 0 : count; i < count; ++i, index += condition ? 1 : -1) or something like that, but there's almost always a better way to design it.
Is it possible to conditionally change the direction of a for loop in ActionScript?
Example:
for(if(condition){var x = 0; x<number; x++}else{var x=number; x>0; x--}){
//do something
}
Interesting requirement. One way to keep the for is:
var start, loop_cond, inc;
if(condition)
{
start = 0;
inc = 1;
loop_cond = function(){return x < number};
}
else
{
start = number - 1;
inc = -1;
loop_cond = function(){return x >= 0};
}
for(var x = s...

When people quote others, it is common practice to add a source or attribution of the original speaker. When you select text and hit the quote button, there should be a pop-up that asks for an optional attribution. The attribution should be added and formatted in some way as well.

Sorry I was busy getting piled on for not putting a regex in a code block and having 800 people think I don't know ( is a special character as a result.
