What is an advanced for loop in C++?

Can you explain what an advanced for loop is in C++?

Sure! An advanced for loop, also known as a range-based for loop, allows you to iterate over elements in a collection easily.

How does it differ from a traditional for loop?

The main difference is that a traditional for loop requires you to manage the loop variable and the collection size, while the advanced for loop abstracts that away.

Can you give me an example of using an advanced for loop?

Of course! Here's a simple example:

std::vector<int> numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
for (int num : numbers) {
    std::cout << num << " ";
}

This will print each number in the vector.

Are there any limitations to using advanced for loops?

Yes, you cannot modify the elements of the collection directly within the loop. If you need to modify them, you should use a traditional for loop.
