Looping of script

Looping with numbers

Lets say $variable is 5.

So I want a command to set a timer 5 times according to $variable and it goes something like this,

1st time: utimer 5 doproc
2nd time: utimer 10 doproc
3rd time: utimer 15 doproc
4th time: utimer 20 doproc
5th time: utimer 25 doproc

So it could be like $variable is 10 times and it can go on to 10th time, each time increasing 5 seconds. How do I go about coding it?

Code: Select all

set variable 5

for {set i 1} {$i <= $variable} {incr i} {
  utimer [expr 5*$i] doproc 
}

this should work, if i get what you want

edit: you probably wanted to do 5min steps $variable times, so i edited
