Maybe so but this macro isn't it.

  (1) Type of iteration variable should be a parameter,
      not fixed.

  (2) The usage '## __LINE__' doesn't work.

  (3) The "test" and "increment" should both be more
      general.

  (4) Perhaps most important, the loop body should
      not be a parameter.  Ick and double ick.

Challenge:  write a macro definition that addresses each
of the above concerns.  Specifically with regard to point
(4), the macro expansion should act like a 'for(...)'
prefix, so the loop body statement comes after the macro
call, eg,

    P_FOR( int, i, 0, < 10, ++ ){
        sum += a[i];
    }

(Yes there are hints there for some of the other points.)
