Exit the loop every time if it was done more than N times Topic is solved

[Botsy]

Hello everyone! Could tell me plz, how you can exit the loop if it has been done more than N times?
There are two endless loops:

Code: Select all

Loop (first)
{
	Loop (second)
	{
		....
			if 
			{
				*If this if is done more than N times, exit the second loop and return to the first loop*
				break
			{
		else
			{
				....
			}
	}
}

If we add "if A_index> 8" to the "if", then we will indeed exit, though only once. Because when we get into the second loop again, A_index will already be greater than 8

I would use an index variable. You can define for every loop a separate one. Increase it and break at your defined counter.

can you explain a little bit more ?

Code: Select all

counter_first := 0

Loop, 100
{
	MsgBox,,,First %counter_first%
	counter_second := 0
	Loop, 100
	{
		MsgBox,,, Second %counter_second%
		if counter_second > 9
			Break
		counter_second += 1
	}
	if counter_first > 10
		Break
	counter_first += 1
}

Now you have only to know where to reset your counter variables, what are the breaking condition for every loop and how big your steps are.
In this example the "second" loop, loops 10 times for every "first" loop. The loops are set to 100. But you could use an endless loop to.
