Hi there,

for (int n=0; n<100;n++){

}

How to write this logic in atl?

ATL for logic used in collection is a bit different to this requirement. Here, iteration needs to happen until the condition becomes false.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

The OCL idiom is

Sequence{0..99}->forAll(n | ... )

I suppose I can add the following bit of knowledge to this:

http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?RecursionVsLoop

In ATL, you should use recursion rather than loops. It is equally expressive,
and fits better into ATL's mainly functional programming model.
