Nodejs Function Call times(iterator, context)

Method Source Code

/**// w  w w. ja va  2 s  .  c  om
 * Calls iterator the specified number of times, passing in the number of the

 *
 * @param {Function} iterator The iterator takes a single parameter, the number
 * of the current iteration.
 * @param {Object} [context] The optional context parameter specifies an object
 * to treat as <code>this</code> in the iterator block.
 *
 * @returns The number of times the iterator was called.
 * @type Number
