for

For Loop diagram

Sample:

public class ForLoop {

    /**
     * The for statement begins by declaring a counter variable, (int i = 0;, 
     *     this command is run only the first time in the loop. 
     * Then a condition is declared that will determine if the loop runs again, i < 4;
     *     if this condition is true after incrementing, the loop begins again. 
     * Then a final command is declared that increments the counter after the loop is run, i++)
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
            System.out.printf("%nStart of loop...%n");
            System.out.printf("i = %d", i);
            System.out.printf("%nEnd of loop...%n");
        }
        
        System.out.printf("%nThe conditional is complete.%n");

For-Each loop diagram

Sample:

public class ForEach {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int[] numbers = {1, 2, 3};

        for (int number : numbers) {
            System.out.println(number);
        }

        System.out.printf("%nThe conditional is complete.%n");
    }
}

Sample (List.forEach())

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

public class ListForEach {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3));
