In Excel you can easily fill in a column with a list of values. Some times also in Emacs you my need to write down a bunch of similar code. The dotimes function with the “elsp eval” M-x : (Esc + : on windooze) will solve your trouble easily. Try out this code on scratch buffer:

A new version of an Arduino Realtime OS is on the go:

I have used with profit and fun NilRTOS, and I strongly suggest to you this new variant.
A preemptive multi tasking RTOS in a 2KB 1-MIPS, 8 bit microcontroller remember be the ugly time when a MS-Windows 3.x with 1 MB of RAM was an inferior operative system no-preemptive at all, but with nice software like Excel and Access

Nel 2011, per studiare node js creai un progetto chiamato OrgModeParser.
Org Mode è un package per l’editor Emacs, ed è pensato per tenere note strutturate, pianificare progetti con una schedulazione, mantenere una lista di cose da fare e generare poi documenti word o html da tali file in modo piuttosto efficace.

Sometimes in University I found bold young guy saying something like:
I will reimplement this in machine language because is faster
I will reimplement this xyz C function by my own
My program crash, I think there is a bug in HP UNIX socket implementation
I will ge rid of this Java Garbage Collector because it is too slow. I will reimplement all the code in my C++ routine.
Belive me: your code is doomed. A full list of guys have already done your same code, found a million bugs and corrected it in the tool you want to replace because they are shitty slow, to your eyes.
I feel your pain because I made your same mistake. Keep reading.
