    Increment Twice in For loop

    Rather than incrementing p by 1 for each iteration how would I go about incrementing p by 2 each time...thanks for your help. for(int p = 0; p < total_words; p++)

    Code:
    (int p = 0; p < total_words; p+=2)
    p+=2 is the same thing as p = p + 2
    the best things in life are simple.

    Also, not in response to your original question, you can do other things with for loops, such as:

    Code:
    x = 12; // or some arbitruary value
    
    for( int i = 0; i < 10; i++, x++ )
    {
         // Code...
    }
