The for loop in Groovy is much simpler and works with any kind of array, collection, Map etc.
Note: the standard for loop is not implemented by beta-10.

// iterate over a range

// iterate over values in a map

for ( v in map.values() ) {

// iterate over the characters in a string
def text = "abc"
def list = []
for (c in text) {
list.add(c)
}
assert list == ["a", "b", "c"]
