what is for(5 (i)=>{..........}

hi i saw ones in a topic:
oncollide:= (e)=>{ for(5 (i)=>{scene.addcircle({pos:=e.pos;heterocollide:=true})}}
what does that mean (''for(5 (i)=>{......}
does it mean that it spawns 5 balls per time collide?

Exactly! It repeats the script five times if used right. You can try it and see for yourself.

wow okay but how does the script look like? it doesn't work with (e)=>{ for(5 (i)=>{scene.addcircle({....})}

You wrote wrong. (e)=>{for(5, (i)=>{scene.addCircle({radius := 0.5; color := [0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0]; pos := e.pos; })})}

You forgot the comma (,) between (5 and (i)=>{}.
You wrote for(5 (i)=>{}
This works(5, (i)=>{}
