MATLAB: Code Explaination (For Loop)

for loop indexing

function [y]=f6(x)
global data
x=abs(x);
n=length(data(:,1));
for i=1:n-1
if x(i)>1;
x(i)=1;
else
end
P(i)=data(i+1,4)+x(i)*(data(i+1,5)-data(i+1,4));
end
Can anyone explain the for loop please?
My data is a 3×5 matrix & i'll use it for genetic algorithm.

The code is doing linear interpolation between column 4 and column 5, using abs(x) as the portion of the way between the columns.
