   Input
   T<-10
   for (t in (T-1:1)){
   print("yes")
   for (s in (1:10)){
   print(s)
   }
   }

   Output:
   yes
   1 to 10 printed…
   Thus, outer loop is executed only once. I don't know what Im missing.

     If you haven’t figured it out yet, it is because the brackets surround the colon operator in the first for loop i.e. (T-1:1).

     Assuming the brackets are there to denote precedence, the first for loop should be:

     for(t in (T-1):1){
     print(“yes”)
     …
     }

     That should print 9 “yes”. Hope this helps.
