How to create for loop USING a while loop

Question

Hi, I would like make a for loop inside of a while loop because I want to control the i count of the loop, and overall, more control over the loop. From what I understand, labVIEW's for loop doesn't let me change where the i count starts. It always start at i=0, and what I want to do is be able to jump to specific loop iterations and then continue from there.
Thank you.

That is not the same as the earlier examples.
If you want 10 counts and start at 0, then the stop terminal will stop after 10 times.  Just like you get when you wire 10 into the N terminal and don't have a conditional loop.
If your start value is larger, let's say 9, then your loop will only run 1 time because i=0 on first iteration + 1+ 9 (start value).  0 + 1 +9 = 10.
If your start value is larger than 10, then it will run 10 times again because on the intial iteration the result of your comparison is already greater than 10 and won't stop, and will never be equal on later iterations.
So your example does not even give consistent results depending on the value you use as the start value.
(Just to note, my earlier examples may not all be identical results as I didn't try to verify all the stop conditions nor the array that is output by the ramp function.  I could be off by one iteration here or there.  But they should be good enough to point out distinctive ways to accomplish what the OP asked for.)
