If you meant $run3 on the third time line, then you can use
for ($i=1; $i<$SomeNumber; $i++)
{
$SomeValue = some_function(${run$i});
}
Or, use could say
for ($i=1; $i<$SomeNumber; $i++)
{
$VarName = "run$i";
$SomeValue = some_function($$VarName);
}
If you actually _wanted_ to use '$run2' on the third time, I'm
interpreting that to mean you want to limit the maximum value of the
digit to 2. If so, you could do
for ($i=1; $i<$SomeNumber; $i++)
{
$VarName = 'run'.max($i, 2);
$SomeValue = some_function($$VarName);
}
