for loop logic porting from bash to csh

Question

I have below code snippet working in bash:

for i in `ps -eaf | grep -i <pattern> | awk '{print $3}'`; do kill -9 $i; done

But I have a requirement to port this code to work in csh shell due to some legacy application is written using csh.

Sample output of "ps -eaf | grep -i | awk '{print $3}'"

I am on RHEL 7.2 (tcsh-6.18.01-8.el7.x86_64, bash-4.2.46-19.el7.x86_64)

Hello, @dcds, you would like to get integer number frim where? Variable? Read it from a file? — user88036

would you please include example? this will be very helpful and our answer will be more accurate, after grep are these ids saved in a file or just variables — user88036

foreach i (`echo 1 2 3`)
  echo $i
end

Using your example:

foreach i (`ps -eaf | grep -i <pattern> | awk '{print $3}'`)
  kill -9 $i
end
