Is there a better way to run a command N times in bash?

Question

I occasionally run a bash command line like this:

n=0; while [[ $n -lt 10 ]]; do some_command; n=$((n+1)); done

To run some_command

Answer 1

xargs and seq will help

function __run_times { seq 1 $1| { shift; xargs -i -- "$@"; } }

the view :

abon@abon:~$ __run_times 3  echo hello world
hello world
hello world
hello world
