Hello everyone, I am working on a script and I have to run a loop to print some lines and I need to increment some variables by 1 and some by 2. Is it possible to do that in a same loop ? 

for(my $i = 0; $i<$size; $i += 2){
    
    
    print FH "myMetal$i = dbCreatePath(cv list(\"@$metal_ref[$i]\"  \"
+drawing\") list(x1:y1 x2=(x1-(@$length_ref[$i]-1)):y1 ) @$width_ref[$
+i]) \n";
        
    }

The thing is, that I also need to increment those x and y values by 1, but I am not able to do it. I can't run an extra loop, because it will give me multiple result that I don't need. So I hope if anyone of you could help me with this. Thank you.
