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

All of the existing answers appear to require bash, and don't work with a standard BSD UNIX /bin/sh (e.g., ksh on OpenBSD).

The below code should work on any BSD:

$ echo {1..4}
{1..4}
$ seq 4
sh: seq: not found
$ for i in $(jot 4); do echo e$i; done
e1
e2
e3
e4
$
