UBYTE/FOR loop issue?

[LTee]

I wrote the following code to list out the numbers from 0 to 255:

Code:

DIM i as UBYTE = 0
for i = 0 to 255
    print i;"   "
next i

The code compiles and runs, but it never ends. When the loop gets to 255, it begins again from 0. :-)

Making the loop "0 to 254" or changing i to an INTEGER/UINTEGER gets around the issue.
