How to increment a number by 2 in a PHP For Loop

Question

The following is a simplified version of my code    lt  php for  n 1   n lt  8   n       gt       lt p gt  lt  php echo  n    gt  lt  p gt       lt p gt  lt  php echo  n    gt  lt  p gt   lt  php endfor    gt    I want the loop to run 8 times and I want the number in the first paragraph to increment by 1 with each loop  e g   1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  this is obviously simple   However  I want the number in the second paragraph to increment by 2 with each loop  e g     1  3  5  7  9  11  13  15  I can t figure out how to make the number in the second paragraph increment by 2 with each loop  If I change it to  n   then it increments by 2  but it then makes the loop run only 4 times instead of 8   Any help would be much appreciated  Thanks

You should do it like this    for   i 1   i  lt  10   i  2          echo  i   lt br gt             you can increase your variable as much or less you want    i  5  or   i   5
