Fortran introduced the do loop, which BASIC made into the for loop. A counter is given an initial value. If it is below the maximum value, the loop's instructions are executed. Then the counter is set to the next value.

This trivial example prints out the first five integers:
FOR I = 1 TO 5
FOR I = 1 TO 5
PRINT I
PRINT I
NEXT I
