It was very common in text books when showing nested loops
int nWhatTheCount = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < i; j++) {
for (int k = 0; k < j; k++) {
for (int l = 0; l < k; l++) { // and on, and on
nWhatTheCount++;
}
}
}
}

WTF, I have never used nor seen “j.”
I don’t usually have to name these variables these days though. Pretty much everything I use has foreach or some functional programming type stuff.
And like that, the off-by-one mistakes disappear.

j
