+# LOOPS
+
+## Loop over a (*small*) range of numbers
+
+Alternative to `seq` and only suitable for small and static number ranges. The number list can also be replaced with a list of words, variables etc.
+
+```shell
+# Loop from 0-10.
+for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10; do
+    printf '%s\n' "$i"
+done
+```
+
+## Loop over a variable range of numbers
+
+Alternative to `seq`.
+
+```shell
+# Loop from var-var.
+start=0
+end=50
+
+while [ "$start" -le "$end" ]; do
+    printf '%s\n' "$start"
+    start=$((start+1))
+done
+```
+
+## Loop over the contents of a file
+
+```shell
+while read -r line; do
+    printf '%s\n' "$line"
+done < "file"
+```
+
+## Loop over files and directories
+
+Don’t use `ls`.
+
+```shell
+# Greedy example.
+for file in *; do
+    printf '%s\n' "$file"
+done
+
+# PNG files in dir.

 # ESCAPE SEQUENCES
 
 Contrary to popular belief, there is no issue in utilizing raw escape sequences. Using `tput` abstracts the same ANSI sequences as if printed manually. Worse still, `tput` is not actually portable. There are a number of `tput` variants each with different commands and syntaxes (*try `tput setaf 3` on a FreeBSD system*). Raw sequences are fine.
