+====== Set Pipeline Parameter From For Loop ======
+Create a pipeline parameter to mimic a traditional for loop.
+Traditional for loops are numerical representations, such as:
+For i=1 to 10 step1
+Visual3D's For_Each loop are string entries that are specified explicitly by the user.
+This command creates a string expression.
+==== Integer loop ====
+**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_For_Loop**
+/PARAMETER_NAME=INT_VALUES
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_START=1
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_END=10
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_STEP=1
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_TYPE=INTEGER
+**;**
+on execution the results are
+INT_VALUES = 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10
+\\
+==== Float loop ====
+**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_For_Loop**
+/PARAMETER_NAME=FLOAT_VALUES
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_START=0
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_END=5
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_STEP=0.5
+/PARAMETER_INDEX_TYPE=FLOAT
+**;**
+FLOAT_VALUES = 0.000000+0.500000+1.000000+1.500000+2.000000+2.500000+3.000000+3.500000+4.000000+4.500000+5.000000
+==== Expressions ====
+The start, end and step parameters will accept expressions.
+Create 3 global metric signals:
+Metric_Explicit
+/RESULT_METRIC_NAME=GLOBAL::START
+/RESULT_METRIC_FOLDER=COUNTER
+/METRIC_VALUE=0
