Is it possible to write a loop where the increments are not uniform? I'd like to gradually increase the size of the step.

Well One suggestion would be to create 2 counters for ex:

x = 500 ' whatever the ammount of steps u want
i = 0
j = 0

do until i = x
''' your code is excuted here
i = i + 1
j = j + i '' example value j grows much faster then i
'' whatever other algporithm u want to implement could be multiplied by j or whatever u need to do
i = j ' if you want your loop to skip some steps
loop



It is just a thought, but you can base something on this algorithm, also you can manipulate teh values of i and j or any ammount of variables as the loop is iterating

all you really have to do is come up with an algorithm for how man y steps to skip

hope this helps, or atleast gives u an idea in the right direction

Illusionist: ko99 is trying to make the step uneven and uniform.
Step 3 looks like it's a uniform step.

ko99: You definitely shouldn't use a For Loop for this - having a Do Loop as tblpidar mentioned should work. We don't know exactly what you are using it for, though.

Thankyou all. I think tblpidar's approach will work.
