For Loop to Iterate with Larger Arrays

[rrww]

When two or more arrays are fed to a for loop, the loop always iterates with the smallest array size.

See the attached picture. For example, Array A with size of 2 and Array B with size of 4 are fed into a for loop; the loop only iterates for 2 cycles. How to let it iterate 4 cycles?

I know that I could predetermine the size of each array, and insert some empty elements to the smaller one to make both array equal sizes. But is there an easier way to let the loop to iterate with the larger array?

You could use a while loop instead which would use the default data for the type after then last element.

Perhaps if we knew what you really wanted to do, we could offer a more elegant solution.  (Surely you're not just taking the two arrays apart just to put them back together again.)

For a for loop, no.

But the following hack should work.

Or you could just use a 2d array...

Build Array will add the additional elements to the smaller array.

First have a look at point 4 in my 11+ year old post (that was before the ideas exchange!). Then also have a look a this idea.
