3.2.8 Repeats

Syntax:

     repeat { n, T_1, T_2, ..., T_r } repeated_object

The repeat makes n transformed copies of repeated_object (including the original). The T_i are transforms. The k'th copy of the repeated_object (for k=0,1,...,n-1) is produced in the same manner as for sweeps described in Sweeps. This is repeated here (no pun intended) for convenience. To make the k'th copy, the following transform is applied to the original object.

     T_1^k then T_2^k then ... then T_r^k

Here T^k means “transform T applied k times.”
