For Loop (Simple For loop )

      *
      * where initialization usually declares a loop variable, condition is a
      * boolean expression such that if the condition is true, loop body will be
      * executed and after each iteration of loop body, expression is executed which
      * usually increase or decrease loop variable.
      *
      * Initialization is executed only once.
