But you see, I have to rationalize that in order to guess that you've used a long. If the loop only requires an integer up to 100, why use a long "of course"? If you declared the variable with a prefix or even a type declaration character, it wouldn't require anyone else to try and guess what you were thinking.

Why would you use byte or Integer in a 32 bit environment? A 32 bit Long Integer will out perform the other two! In fact, the only reason to use other numbers, is to confirm with API calls, when necessary. Other then that, there is no reason to use them.

Any of them can be counters. Counter is a non-definitive term for a value, and I object to that kind of coding.

In my code, anything named i j or k immediately signals that's all it is, a counter.
