Re: Why the f*ck do you for instance do things like this?

Then don't use a for-loop for that. Use a do-while-loop. A for-loop is for iterating until a certain condition is met. The compiler is built to warn on relevant error patterns. Since you use the for-loop in this unexpected way - no one but you can contribute to your project. In effect it's only so much dead code.

Is there any construct that you use as intended?
