+    - `for items |&item| { ... }` - capture just the `item` value in the array/slice (uses (immutable) reference semantics, i.e. gets a `@T`)
+    - `for items |&mut item| { ... }` - capture just the `item` value in the array/slice (uses (mutable) reference semantics, i.e. gets a `@mut T`)
+    - `for items |item, idx| { ... }` - capture `item` and its index index in the array/slice
+    - `for 0..10 |i| { ... }` - iterate over the range `0..10` (exclusive)
+    - `for 0..=10 |i| { ... }` - iterate over the range `0..10` (inclusive)
+    - `for 0..(len) |i| { ... }` or equivalently `for 0..=(len - 1) |i| { ... }` - calculating range bounds, expressions must be parenthesized
+  - for all conditionals/guards, parentheses are optional but allowed for visual clarity
+
+## A word on multi-unwrap
+
+Unwrap multiple optionals with `and`. This **short-circuits**: if the first optional is none, subsequent expressions are not evaluated.
+
+```honey
+name: ?[]u8 = get_name()
+age: ?u8 = get_age()
+if name and age |n, a| {
+    # both n and a are guaranteed non-none here
+    print("{s} is {d} years old", {n, a})
+}
+```
+
+**With guard clause on multiple values:**
+
+```honey
+if name and hat |n, h : n == "Huginn" and h.brand == .gucci| {
+    print("{s}'s got that drip\n", {n})
+}
+```
+
+Parentheses around the expression are optional, but can aid readability when combined with guards:
+
+```honey
+# without parentheses
+if name and hat |n, h : guard| { ... }
+
+# with parentheses for clarity
+if (name and hat) |n, h : guard| { ... }
+```
+
+## A word on lazy / short-circuit evaluation
+
+The `and` in multi-unwrap short-circuits left-to-right:
+
+```honey
+if get_name() and get_hat() |n, h| {
+    # get_hat() is only called if get_name() returned non-none
+}
+```
+
+This is important for avoiding unnecessary computation or side effects.
+
+## A word on ranges
+
+Ranges represent a sequence of values, commonly used in for loops, and is itself a value type:
+
+```
+0..10      # exclusive: 0, 1, 2, ..., 9
+0..=10     # inclusive: 0, 1, 2, ..., 10
+```
+
+**Parenthesization rule:** Each side of `..` must be either a simple term (literal or identifier) or a parenthesized expression. This eliminates precedence ambiguity:
+
+```
+0..10           # OK: both sides are literals
+0..n            # OK: both sides are simple
+0..(n + 1)      # OK: complex expression is parenthesized
+(a + 1)..(b - 1)  # OK: both sides parenthesized
+# 0..n + 1      # ERROR: must parenthesize complex expressions
+```
+  
+This rule keeps the grammar simple and forces clarity at the call site — no precedence rules to remember. Also, being a value type, ranges can be assigned to variables and passed around like any other value.
