Beyond the problems with this pseudo-code, why write it in the first
place? Why not just use -rolling-? Presumably Augusto really wants
something other than just a huge logfile, and to save the stuff being
produced in this loop, a little ado-file that saves the stuff he wants
for each turn of the crank would probably be more useful.
