Let's start a war in here

@LukeAlmighty Would I be right in saying for loops can be optimised since the number of iterations can be known beforehand whereas while loops cannot?

@thatbrickster
I'm not sure about that. I believe, that you can change the iterated variable from inside the for loop.

@LukeAlmighty Disgusting. I instead vote for a third option, recursion.
@LukeAlmighty As an inexperienced programmer I wanted pure performance and would've been okay with mutability and reusing variables. As an experienced programmer I want correct programs that I know will perform well should they be designed properly.
