Whether it is Java, C#, C++ syntax for the for loop looks like that:
for (int i = 1; i <= 5; i++)
{
// something
}

But in Javascript scope works differently: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/500431/javascript-variable-scope
I would like to implement two for-loops and my first / intuitive / maybe naive syntax would be:
for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {
}
for (var i=0; i<10; i++) {
}
But it is not correct, see http://www.jshint.com/
'i' is already defined.
Would it be better to have it that way:
var i;
for (i=0; i<10; i++) {
}
for (i=0; i<10; i++) {
}
I don't feel like adding an extra line so I wonder how do you handle multiple loops in javascript, what is the recommended way here?
varin the second loop, and you are good. Though, if you are going for proper & maintainable code, then you should extract thevarinto it's own line so that the scope is clearer. – konijn May 5 at 12:31
