Template:ForLoop

Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

This template is used to create a string multiple times. It works very similar to the #for function in Extension:LoopFunctions

Syntax[edit]

Type {{ForLoop|<iterations>|<string>|<iterationPattern>}} somewhere.

Parameters
  • iterations: The number of times to repeat the string.
  • string: The string to repeat. Note, if this has a space in it, including right after the '|', then it will show up in the expansion.
  • iterationPattern: If this string shows up in the string parameter, it will be replaced by the current iteration count. This defaults to "$n$" as it does in the extension.

Examples[edit]

Basic Usage[edit]

{{ForLoop | 4 |[[File:Heart.png]]}}

gives...

Heart.pngHeart.pngHeart.pngHeart.png

Iteration Count[edit]

{{ForLoop | 4 |$n$, }}

gives...

1, 2, 3, 4,
