For Loops Not Executing Correctly in SimpleScript

Description

In SimpleScript, for loops do not execute as expected. When using a typical loop like for (let i = 1; i <= 5; i++), the loop either does not iterate correctly or breaks prematurely. This disrupts core control flow functionality and limits usage in real-world scenarios.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Write a SimpleScript program with a for loop:
    for (let i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
        print(i);
    }
    
  2. Run the script using the interpreter/web interface.
  3. Observe the output.

Expected Behavior

The loop should print the numbers from 1 through 5:

1
2
3
4
5

Actual Behavior

The output either shows only the first value, skips iterations, or nothing is printed at all.

Possible Causes

  • Off-by-one error in loop bounds
  • Interpreter not handling loop initialization or increment properly
  • Incorrect tokenization or parsing of the for loop structure

Environment

Additional Context

This issue affects the usability of SimpleScript in basic looping tasks and may hinder educational use cases. A fix should ensure:

  • Proper parsing and evaluation of loop bounds
  • Execution of loop body on each iteration
  • Correct variable scope management

Please investigate and fix the issue. Happy to test and provide feedback!


Thanks for your hard work!
