Drawing for loop steps

Is it possible to draw every step of a for loop?

draw() is a while loop and its last step is to update the sketch before repeating itself again. If you set a for loop inside draw, The for loop must execute to completion in each cycle of the draw().

If you want to see the following code step by step

for(int step=0;step<width;step++){
  point(step,height/2);
}

I would do it this way

int step=0;
void draw(){
    point(step++,height/2);
    if(step==width){
       step=0;
    }
}

In other words, a for loop become a while loop... sort of.
