the code is
for(int i = 0; i < max; i++) {
//do something
}
I use this exact code many times when I program, always starting at 0 and using the interval i++. There is really only one variable that changes (max)
It could not be that much shorter, but considering how much this code is used, it would be quite helpful.
I know in python there is the range function which is much quicker to type.
When looping through collections, you can use enhanced loops:
int[] numbers =
{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
for (int item : numbers) {
System.out.println(item);
}
