Loops Loops
***** *****
Sometimes you want to repeat a task multiple times. In computer programming, this is called a loop. Common Ansible loops include changing ownership on several files and/or directories with the :ref:`file module <file_module>`, creating multiple users with the :ref:`user module <user_module>`, and Ansible offers the ``loop``, ``with_<lookup>``, and ``until`` keywords to execute a task multiple times. Examples of commonly-used loops include changing ownership on several files and/or directories with the :ref:`file module <file_module>`, creating multiple users with the :ref:`user module <user_module>`, and
repeating a polling step until a certain result is reached. Ansible offers two keywords for creating loops: ``loop`` and ``with_<lookup>``. repeating a polling step until a certain result is reached.
.. note:: .. note::
* We added ``loop`` in Ansible 2.5. It is not yet a full replacement for ``with_<lookup>``, but we recommend it for most use cases. * We added ``loop`` in Ansible 2.5. It is not yet a full replacement for ``with_<lookup>``, but we recommend it for most use cases.
