REPEAT (a number of time - variable depending)

Post by jafuli » Fri Aug 19, 2016 12:48 pm

Hi all !

I need to run a repeat loop, but the number of iteration is variable : ideally, I should get this number from a specific table.
Something like:
DataTable (URL to scrape from - nb of iteration)

Any idea of how to to that ?

Thank you !

Another explanation :

- I navigate to a specific URL
- I extract one value VAL
- I want to calculate a number using this value, like newVAL = INT(VAL/20)+1
- I want now to begin a loop using this new value, like :

Repeat (newVAL) > do this, extract that > do loop till end

any idea ?
