There is no need for such a limited language construct. for, foreach, while, do..while, ... are enough loops. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-03 20:27:05] kenaniah at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Granted, you can replicate this by using while($i=0;$i<$times;$i++){ //code here } but that defeats the doctrine of simplicity... Is a language construct such as repeat($times){ //code here } really that much to ask for? My proposal: <b><i>void </i>repeat (<i>$times</i>, <i>[&$counter]</i>)</b> where counter is a reference to a variable that will be incremented upon each iteration. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42535&edit=1
