its used only when we use assignment int a=1, b=2, c=3; it has nothing to do with for statement, the assignment which you are doing in for, is where it uses comma.

Comma operator can also be used in other statements like printf(), scanf() e.g printf("The number entered is %d", num); It can also be used for separating the variables while declaring e.g int num1, num2,num3; Separating the arguments during function declaration
