loop_lt — Looping constructions.
indx -- i-rate variable to count loop.
incr -- value to increment the loop.
imax -- maximum value of loop index.
kndx -- k-rate variable to count loop.
kncr -- value to increment the loop.
kmax -- maximum value of loop index.
The actions of loop_lt are equivalent to the code
indx = indx + incr
if (indx < imax) igoto label
or
kndx = kndx + kncr
if (kndx < kmax) kgoto label
Here is an example of the loop_lt opcode. Play loop_lt.csd
