A GFOR loop may be embedded as the innermost loop in a nested FOR loop.

When used with GCOMPILE (or ARRAYFUN), FOR loops may only use constants in the loop, and may only increment by a value >= 1, for example:

for i=0:10,      % GOOD
  ...
end
 
for i=0:2:10,    % GOOD
  ...
end

or

for i=0:0.5:10,  % BAD
  ...
end
