here's my code:

%loop entered
loop
for num:0..101
put num+5
put (num+5)+5
put (num+5)+(num+5)+5
delay(10000)
end for
end loop

now instead of going like this:

5
10
15
20
35

my output is:
5
10
15
6
11
17

you basically do what was said above.. a variable then add teh value of the for loop, check it out.

code:
var total:int:=0 %declare a var of int, set it to 0
for i:0..101 by 5 %start a for loop, increment by 5 each time
  put i %display i
   total += i %add i to the total value
end for

code:

int count:=1
loop
    put count*5
    count+=1
end loop
