Re: [basex-talk] Generating consecutive integers in a for loop

Hi Ron, Maybe the attached codes-nippet is useful to you. It is an example of stateful programming, which isn't compliant with the functional programming concept but, in some cases, can be very useful. Hopes it helps, Rob Stapper PS. put the module-file in a subdirectory: "counter", in your

Re: [basex-talk] Generating consecutive integers in a for loop

Thanks all! I went with the solution suggested by Christian. It is simple, efficient, and solves my problem (starting at 1 is fine). The GFLWOR approach is nice, except that I have two nested for loops so it produces two counts instead of one (and there is no straightforward way to combine
