Looping: for ... in range
In the example below, the names of a scene's first 10 objects are being printed to RealFlow's "Messages" panel. There must be at least 10 objects, because otherwise you will get a syntax error!
The counter
variable is constantly updated and used as an index to identify elements in the sceneAllObjects
list:
# Mind the leading spaces, because otherwise you will get syntax errors! sceneAllObjects = scene.getObjects() numberOfObjects = 10 Â for counter in range(0, numberOfObjects): currentObject = sceneAllObjects[counter] nameObject = currentObject.getName() scene.message(nameObject)
Â
The next batch script adds all numbers from 0 to 100. The result variable will not be overwritten because of the += operator, but the new number will be added to the already existing result.
To get a correct output it is necessary to define the range from 0 to 101.
# Mind the leading spaces, because otherwise you will get syntax errors! # Initialize the result variable result = 0  for number in range(0,101): result += number  # Convert the number (integer) to a string scene.message(str(result))
