Have you been to, read about, or seen any news about China in the last, oh I don't know, 50 years? Or did you make up your mind about China during the height of the Cold War era and you're never going to change it no…

I checked it, and the case you linked, out. So there is a similar law in the US, even though it's not named "National Security Law". And you can be prosecuted under that law. How different is it really, from the…

There you need the word "each" to convey that it's a loop. I'd certainly agree that "for each" is much better than "for" alone.
There you need the word "every" to convey that it's a loop. I'd certainly agree that "for each" is much better than "for" alone.
It's only natural if you already know that a for-statement is a loop. "while" is no better without the "do".
> "Clean this item and put it away. Then do that for every other piece of cooking equipment." Without the "do" it's nonsensical. And that was exactly my point.
It's kind of sad that "for" is the keyword programming languages settled on for the loop construct. Ever since its counterpart "do" was dropped from the for-statement, it's just been utterly nonsensical. I mean how on…
