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.
