The subtype of a loop variable is the subtype used to define the loop's
range. Something like '1..10' is shorthand for 'Integer range 1..10' and
so in your example I has type Integer.

However, I echo the comments Georg Bauhaus made in his post: be careful
with conversions. They often (not always) mean you haven't defined your
types properly or that you haven't declared your variables with the most
appropriate types.
