Everyone, 

I'm very new to R, especially when it comes to loops and functions, so
please bear with me if this is an elementary question. I cannot seem to
figure out how to construct a loop which runs a function until a certain
value is computed. For example, say I have the following: 

num = numeric (10) 
num [1] = 0 
for (i in 2:10)   { 
      num [i] = num [i-1] + 5 
} 

This adds 5 to the preceding spot of a vector of length 10 to get the value
in the current spot. However, say I don't just want to run this for 10
spots; rather I want to run it until a certain value (say, 100) is computed.
How I construct my loop to do this? 

Thanks!
