For Each...Next

Description

Loops through the elements of a one-dimensional array or a class that implements the Iterable interface.

For Each element [ As DataType ] In array
  [ Statements ]
  [ Continue [ For ] ]
  [ Exit [ For ] ]
Next [ element ]

Part	Type	Description
element	Same type as array	A variable of the same data type as array that refers to an element of array. The loop processes each value in array.
DataType	Any valid datatype	Optional: The data type of the array element.
array	Any valid datatype	A one-dimensional array whose data type must match DataType.
Statements		Statements to be executed repeatedly inside the loop.
Continue		If a Continue statement is present, execution skips directly to the loop's Next statement, thereby causing another loop iteration unless the end is reached.
Exit		If an Exit statement is present, execution skips over the remaining statements in the loop and resumes with the statement following the Next statement. See the Exit statement for additional options that are relevant for nested loops.

For...Each loops through the values in the array in index order.

As with other block statements, variables declared within a For...Each loop go out of scope when the loop finishes or exits.

Iterate through an array:

Var days() As String = Array("One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five")
Var output As String
For Each d As String In days
  output = output + d
Next

Calculate the sum of values in an array:

Var values() As Double = Array(1.5, 5.5, 8.0, 45.0, 22.5)
Var sum As Double
For Each d As Double In values
  sum = sum + d
Next
' sum = 82.5
