Then you can use the standard {% for %} tag:

{% for i in looper %}
  {{i}}
{% endfor %}

I am not aware of any tag that will allow you to do that, out of the box. You have two options, the first is to create a custom template tag that do what you want[1]. This shouldn't really be terribly difficult to do. The second option would be to just pass in a variable into the context with a list containing the number of items of the number of times you want to loop. Using generic views, this could be done in your urls.py like: [1] http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#extending-the-template-system
