Variable name doesn't have to start with _. could be:for "LAlala" from 0 to 0 do {hint str LAlala}; //0 The variable LAlala will exist only inside do {} scope and will not overwrite any variable of the same name that existed before.

For loops can be safely nested. This means that there should not be any problems with recursion. _array = []; for "_i" from 0 to 3 do { for "_i" from 0 to 3 do { _array pushBack _i; }; _array pushBack _i; }; hint str _array;
