Understanding the For Loop in C++
Increment
Initialization After each iteration, the counter variable is incremented or decremented
The for loop starts by setting up a counter variable with an initial value. according to the loop's logic.

Condition
The loop continues to execute as long as a specified condition remains true.
Step-by-Step Breakdown of the Code

Header Files
Include the necessary header files (e.g., iomanip, time.h) for input/output and time manipulation.

Variable Declaration
Declare variables to store the start time, elapsed time, and loop counter.

For Loop Structure


Implement the for loop with conditions to control the timer's duration.

Time Calculation
Use the time() function to retrieve the current time and calculate elapsed time.

Output
Display the elapsed time on the screen.
