| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Loop. 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. It is based on Module:String, and there is no limit to the number of iterations it can perform.
Contents
Usage
{{loop|times to repeat|string}}
If string contains an equals sign, you must put "|2=string" instead of "|string".
Examples
{{loop|4|n}}
- nnnn
{{loop|25|test}}
- testtesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttesttest
{{#expr:2{{loop|50|*2}}}}
- 2.2517998136852E+15
When the string being replicated includes "=", we have to precede the second parameter with "2=", or use {{=}}.
{{loop|9|2==}}
- =========
or:
{{loop|9|{{=}}}}

{{loop|3|{{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

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