Template:Loop/doc

This template is used to produce a simple loop. It is based on Module:String, and there is no limit to the number of iterations it can perform.

Usage

{{loop|times to repeat|string}}

If string contains an equals sign, you must put "|2=string" instead of "|string".

Examples

{{loop|4|n}}

When the string being replicated includes "=", we have to precede the second parameter with "2=", or use {{=}}. {{loop|9|2==}}
