What others have answered is tangential. Nobody doubts there are places
where you want to repeat something N times. Just to add an example, if you
are parsing something nested by parentheses or perhaps HTML, and you reach a
point where you have seen N opening symbols and start seeing a closing
symb

I would like some examples of how one does what is requested in some other
programming languages. I doubt there is much need of a shorter way to do
anything N times and throw away any return values.
Python has many ways to do just about anything. It has some features which
suggest a particular way

If I do this:
foo = [ "bar", "baz" "slop", "crud" ]
Python silently accepts that and makes the middle term "bazslop".
BUT, if I do this:
foo = [ "bar", "baz" 1, "crud" ]
or this:
foo = [ "bar", 2 1, "crud" ]
The interpreter throws a syntax error.
This is more of an intellectual

It depends on what's elegant, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder..
def recurse(n):
print(”do be do be do”)
if n>0: recurse(n-1)
