repeat statement

To repeatedly execute a code block multiple times, we use loops. The most basic loop in Kotlin is the repeat statement. We just have to write the number of times a code block needs to be executed. Syntax :

 repeat (/* no. of times */) {
    // Code
}
 

Following code prints Hello World! 3 times :

 fun main() {
		repeat (3) {
		    println("Hello World!")
		}
}
 

We can also access the loop variable i.e. iteration number (0 -> 2) using the it variable :

 fun main() {
		repeat (3) {
		    println("$it. Hello World!")
		}
}

/* Output :

0. Hello World!
1. Hello World!
2. Hello World!
*/
 

repeat statements loop variable always starts from 0 and ends at n-1. If we need more customizable range, we can use for loops.
