just keep reusing the same iterator integer, which I assumed you were<br>
talking about earlier.<br>
</blockquote><div><br>Oh, yes, I do that, and I use a few of those for situations like "for very step, for every sound...." that need nested FOR loops. I was just trying to see how small a garbage-free FOR loop could get here<br>

Also, this is going to be a lot more important for object references<br>
and large arrays, etc. but it's neat trick that I didn't know about<br>
before<br>
</blockquote><div><br>IMHO this is quite exciting. I think it's comparable to the discussion we had about casting from general to specific classes a while ago; to me it seems like we have lately been getting what amounts to new features purely because of the user base, regardless of developments on the language/VM front.<br>
<br>I think that's a important stage in ChucK's development; just because I tried to see what would happen if we tried to push this to a extreme case doesn't mean I'm not very enthusiastic about what we saw here; this is absolutely great and changes a lot.<br>
