Loops/With multiple ranges is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Some languages allow multiple loop ranges, such as the PL/I example (snippet) below.

<lang pli> /* all variables are DECLARED as integers. */

         prod=  1;                    /*start with a product of unity.           */
          sum=  0;                    /*  "     "  "   sum    " zero.            */
            x= +5;
            y= -5;
            z= -2;
          one=  1;
        three=  3;
        seven=  7;
                                      /*(below)  **  is exponentiation:  4**3=64 */
          do j=   -three  to     3**3        by three   ,
                  -seven  to   +seven        by   x     ,
                     555  to      550 - y               ,
                      22  to      -28        by -three  ,
                    1927  to     1939                   ,
                       x  to        y        by   z     ,
                   11**x  to    11**x + one;
                                                       /* ABS(n) = absolute value*/
          sum= sum + abs(j);                           /*add absolute value of J.*/
          if abs(prod)<2**27 & j¬=0  then prod=prod*j; /*PROD is small enough & J*/
          end;                                         /*not 0, then multiply it.*/
                    /*SUM and PROD are used for verification of J incrementation.*/
        display (' sum= ' ||  sum);                    /*display strings to term.*/
        display ('prod= ' || prod);                    /*   "       "     "   "  */</lang>


Task

Simulate/translate the above PL/I program snippet as best as possible in your language,   with particular emphasis on the   do   loop construct.

The   do   index must be incremented/decremented in the same order shown.

If feasible, add commas to the two output numbers (being displayed).

Show all output here. <lang> A simple PL/I DO loop (incrementing or decrementing) has the construct of:

           DO variable = start_expression    {TO ending_expression]       {BY increment_expression} ;
                ---or---
           DO variable = start_expression    {BY increment_expression}    {TO ending_expression]    ;  
     where it is understood that all expressions will have a value.  The  variable  is normally a 
     scaler variable,  but need not be  (but for this task, all variables and expressions are declared
     to be scaler integers).   If the   BY   expression is omitted,  a   BY   value of unity is used.
     All expressions are evaluated before the   DO   loop is executed,  and those values are used
     throughout the   DO   loop execution   (even though, for instance,  the value of   Z   may be
     changed within the   DO   loop.    This isn't the case here for this task.  
     A multiple-range   DO   loop can be constructed by using a comma (,) to separate additional ranges
     (the use of multiple   TO   and/or   BY   keywords).     This is the construct used in this task.

     There are other forms of   DO   loops in PL/I involving the  WHILE  clause,  but those won't be 
     needed here.    DO  loops without a   TO   clause might need a   WHILE   clause  or some other 
     means of exiting the loop  (such as  LEAVE,  RETURN,  SIGNAL,  GOTO,  or  STOP),  or some other 
     (possible error) condition that causes transfer of control outside the  DO  loop.

     Also, in PL/I, the check if the   DO   loop index value is outside the range is made at the 
     "head"  (start)  of the   DO  loop,  so it's possible that the   DO   loop isn't executed,  but 
     that isn't the case for any of the ranges used in this task. 
     In the example above, the clause:                    x    to y       by z     
     will cause the variable   J   to have to following values  (in this order):  5  3  1  -1  -3  -5
     In the example above, the clause:                 -seven  to +seven  by x  
     will cause the variable   J   to have to following values  (in this order):  -7  -2   3  </lang>

Go

Nothing fancy from Go here (is there ever?), just a series of individual for loops. <lang go>package main

func pow(n int, e uint) int {

   if e == 0 {
       return 1
   }
   prod := n

   if n >= 0 {
       return n
   }
   return -n

}

func commatize(n int) string {

   s := fmt.Sprintf("%d", n)
   if n < 0 {
       s = s[1:]
   }
   le := len(s)
   for i := le - 3; i >= 1; i -= 3 {
       s = s[0:i] + "," + s[i:]
   }
   if n >= 0 {
       return " " + s
   }
   return "-" + s

}

func main() {

   prod := 1
   sum := 0
   const (
       x     = 5
       y     = -5
       z     = -2
       one   = 1
       three = 3
       seven = 7
   )
   p := pow(11, x)
   var j int
   process := func() {
       sum += abs(j)
       if abs(prod) < (1<<27) && j != 0 {
           prod *= j
       }
   }
   for j = -three; j <= pow(3, 3); j += three {
       process()
   }
   for j = -seven; j <= seven; j += x {
       process()
   }
   for j = 555; j <= 550-y; j++ {
       process()
   }
   for j = 22; j >= -28; j -= three {
       process()
   }
   for j = 1927; j <= 1939; j++ {
       process()

Kotlin

Nothing special here, just a series of individual for loops. <lang scala>// Version 1.2.70

import kotlin.math.abs

infix fun Int.pow(e: Int): Int {

   if (e == 0) return 1
   var prod = this
   for (i in 2..e) {
       prod *= this
   }
   return prod

}

fun main(args: Array<String>) {

   var prod = 1
   var sum = 0
   val x = 5
   val y = -5
   val z = -2
   val one = 1
   val three = 3
   val seven = 7
   val p = 11 pow x
   fun process(j: Int) {
       sum += abs(j)
       if (abs(prod) < (1 shl 27) && j != 0) prod *= j
   }
   for (j in -three..(3 pow 3) step three) process(j)
   for (j in -seven..seven step x) process(j)
   for (j in 555..550-y) process(j)
   for (j in 22 downTo -28 step three) process(j)
   for (j in 1927..1939) process(j)
   for (j in x downTo y step -z) process(j)
   for (j in p..p + one) process(j)
   System.out.printf("sum  = % ,d\n", sum)
   System.out.printf("prod = % ,d\n", prod)

}</lang>

Perl 6

Also displaying the j sequence since it isn't very large.

<lang perl6>sub comma { ($^i < 0 ?? '-' !! ) ~ $i.abs.flip.comb(3).join(',').flip }

my \x = 5; my \y = -5; my \z = -2; my \one = 1; my \three = 3; my \seven = 7;

my $j = flat

 ( -three, *+three … 3³         ),
 ( -seven, *+x     …^ * > seven ),
 ( 555   .. 550 - y             ),
 ( 22,     *-three …^ * < -28   ),
 ( 1927  .. 1939                ),
 ( x,      *+z     …^ * < y     ),
 ( 11**x .. 11**x + one         );

put 'j sequence: ', $j; put ' Sum: ', comma [+] $j».abs; put ' Product: ', comma ([\*] $j.grep: so +*).first: *.abs > 2²⁷;

  1. Or, an alternate method for generating the 'j' sequence, employing user-defined
  2. operators to preserve the 'X to Y by Z' layout of the example code.
  3. Note that these operators will only work for monotonic sequences.

sub infix:<to> { $^a ... $^b } sub infix:<by> { $^a[0, $^b.abs ... *] }

$j = cache flat

   -three  to          3**3  by  three ,
   -seven  to         seven  by      x ,
      555  to     (550 - y)            ,
       22  to           -28  by -three ,
     1927  to          1939  by    one ,
        x  to             y  by      z ,

REXX

Programming note:   the (sympathetic) trailing semicolons (;) after each REXX statement are optional,   they are only there to mimic what the PL/I language requires after each statement.

The technique used by this REXX version is to "break up" the various   do   iterating clauses (ranges) into separate   do   loops,   and have them invoke a subroutine to perform the actual computations. <lang rexx>/*REXX program emulates a multiple─range DO loop (all variables can be any numbers). */
