Why is this an issue?

A for loop is a fundamental programming construct used to execute a block of code repeatedly. However, if the loop’s condition is false before the first iteration, the loop will never execute.

for (int i = 0; i < 0; i++) {  // Noncompliant: the condition is always false, and the loop will never execute
    // ...
}

Rewrite the loop to ensure the condition evaluates to true at least once.

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {  // Compliant: the condition is true at least once, the loop will execute
    // ...
}

This bug has the potential to cause unexpected outcomes as the loop might contain critical code that needs to be executed.
