# performCount

A value that specifies the number of times the group’s actions repeat.

## Discussion

The default value is `1`, which execute the actions only once. If the value is `0` and `loops` is set to `true`, the actions execute infinitely. If the value is a number (*n*) and the type is `serial`, the actions execute *n* times in sequence. And if the value is set to a number (*n*) and the type is `parallel`, the actions execute *n* times independently.

### Declaration

```other
uniform uint performCount = 1
```
