How to picture for loop in block representation of algorithm

Question

I have probem   strange question  i got algorithm with few  for  loops and now i need to do block scheme of this algorithm    I know how to picture  while  loop  but is this acceptable to represent  for  loop using  while  and at this point make difference between souce code and algorithm   Ofcourse assuming that all  for  loops are right in place and using loop of any other kind would produce unnecessary code which i avoided using  for  loops   I m guessing that this is rather impossible  at least I can t imagine this  to simply picture  for  loop  but maybe there is a way  if exists    Thanks in advance

Here s a flow chart that illustrates a for loop     The equivalent C code would be  for i   2  i  lt   6  i   i   2        printf   d t   i   1       I found this and several other examples on one of Tenouk s C Laboratory practice worksheets

What s a  block scheme    If I were drawing it  I might draw a box with  for each x in y  written in it   If you re drawing a flowchart  there s always a loop with a decision box   Nassi-Schneiderman diagrams have a loop construct you could use
