"illegal start of expression" help needed

[kaafmim]

As long as I know, for loops need to semicolons my friend, as they also need a condition to end the loop, you may use: (here the condition is i being smaller than max)

for (i=0;i<max;i+=3) {...

or in case you don't know where to end, you should use a while loop:

end_achieved=0;
i=0;

while(!end_echieved) {
...
if(we_should_finish_this_loop) end_achieved=1;
}
