# A simple bash "for loop" example below...
# This loop will run 4 times, and will echo the number in sequence as it goes.
# 3 is increment size
# Mind the double . between the {}
# Note how the variable is called with the $ prefix, which can be done within the "" quotes!
for i in {1..12..3}
do
echo "This is loop number $i"
done
# Result :
# This is loop number 1
# This is loop number 4
# This is loop number 7
# This is loop number 10

Use for in bash for iterating words in a string or values in an array as:
for value in {1, 2, 3}; do echo $value; done
for value in $(cat arguments_files.txt); do [some_command]; done
And use while for iterating lines from a pipe output as:
cat arguments_file.txt | while read line; do [some_command]; done
while [ <some test> ]
do
<commands>
done
for i in `seq 0 2 10`; do echo $i; done
for FILE in $(ls -A); do la $FILE; done
#!/bin/bash
for i in {1..5}
do
echo "Welcome $i times"
done
