Loop Variable Type Mismatch

What does 2263 mean?

This error indicates that a loop variable, such as 'I' in the example, has not been declared as an integer (INT) data type. In KRL programming, counters for counting loops must always be of type INT for correct operation. This prevents the compiler from properly interpreting and executing the loop.

• A variable intended for a loop operation has an incompatible data type.
• Attempted to assign a value of the wrong type to a loop control variable.
• Mismatch between declared type and actual type of loop counter or iterator.
• Compiler error related to loop variable declaration or usage.
• Incorrect data type used in a loop condition or update statement.
