USAGE:
REPEAT 'word value body
DESCRIPTION:
Evaluates a block a number of times or over a series.
REPEAT is a native value.
ARGUMENTS:
word -- Word to set each time (Type: word)
value -- Maximum number or series to traverse (Type: integer series)
body -- Block to evaluate each time (Type: block)
'el is a word that "refers" to each ELement in 'blk. The line could be
rewritten as:
foreach Element blk [append/only result fn :Element args]
I hope that helps!
