| + | 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 == | ||
| + | |||
| + | <pre>{{loop|times to repeat|string}}</pre> | ||
| + | |||
| + | If '''string''' contains an equals sign, you must put "|2=string" instead of "|string". | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Examples == | ||
| + | |||
| + | *<code><nowiki>{{loop|4|n}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{loop|4|n}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | *<code><nowiki>{{loop|25|test}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{loop|25|test}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | *<code><nowiki>{{#expr:2{{loop|50|*2}}}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{#expr:2{{loop|50|*2}}}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | When the string being replicated includes "=", we have to precede the second parameter with "2=", or use {{tl|1==}}. | ||
| + | * <code><nowiki>{{loop|9|2==}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{loop|9|2==}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | or: | ||
| + | * <code><nowiki>{{loop|9|{{=}}}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{loop|9|{{=}}}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | *<code><nowiki>{{loop|3|{{CURRENTYEAR}}}}</nowiki></code> | ||
| + | ;{{loop|3|{{CURRENTYEAR}}}} | ||
| + | |||
| + | <nowiki>*</nowiki> If string contains an equals sign, you must put '|2=string' instead of '|string'. | ||
