Help with for in java

[susan]

If I want to call this 500 times how do I do? With a for-loop?

	public void timeTick()
	{
		++minutes;
		if (minutes == 60)
		{
			minutes = 0;
			++hours;
			if (hours == 24)
			{
				hours = 0;
			}
		}
		checkAlarm();
	}

Thanks

If you want to execute a piece of code an exact number of times then yes a for loop would be ideal to use.
To give a more specific answer without giving the answer, here is example code of adding ten times

public class test
{

  public static void main(String args[])
  {
    int result = 0;
    for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
       result++;
    }
  }
}

Greetings.
