This is a documentation subpage for Template:Loop (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used to produce a simple loop that can repeat up to 150 times. It is not a real loop; it works by conditionally repeating the string. It is a simple version of {{For loop}}.
To use it, enter:
{{loop|times to repeat|string}}
If string contains an equals sign, you must put "|2=string" instead of "|string".
Examples:[edit source]
{{loop|4|n}}
- nnnn
{{loop|25|test}}
- testtesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttest
{{#expr:2{{loop|50|*2}}}}
- Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[".
{{loop|9|2==}}
(the "2=" must be present)
- =========
{{loop|3|{{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
