How can I stop a "for" loop?

[Victor Chernov]

A silly question, but I can't manage it - I have a "for" loop, and I want to
be able to stop it, with boolean control if possible. I can't find a way to
do it. Is there something like "break" in many other languages?

Thank you, Victor

you can use application controls stop in functions palette to complete the task.

Can you use a while loop instead? A while loop will do everything a for
loop can do except stop itself. You have to supply a boolean wired to the
iteration stop.

Use a while loop. If stop button true or counter = (some value -1) then
stop.
