Without any addition the DO
-Loop runs endless or at least until it gets explicitly exited from inside.
The system field sy-index
will be increased for every loop step.
DO.
* do something... get it?
* call EXIT somewhere
ENDDO.
The TIMES
addition offers a very convenient way to repeat code (amount
represents a value of type i
).
DO amount TIMES.
* do several times
ENDDO.
