I keep hitting this as a top link for google  ruby for loop   so I wanted to add a solution for loops where the step wasn t simply  1    For these cases  you can use the  step  method that exists on Numerics and Date objects   I think this is a close approximation for a  for  loop   start   Date new 2013 06 30  stop   Date new 2011 06 30    step back in time over two years  one week at a time start step stop  -7  each do  d       puts d end

limit   array length  for counter in 0  limit  --- make some actions --- end     the other way to do that is the following  3 times do  n    puts n  end   thats will print 0  1  2  so could be used like array iterator also  Think that variant better fit to the author s needs
