Hi Ross,

You can :

1/ define a starting point, i.e. :
#declare x=0

2/ do your loop until an end point, i.e. :
#while (x <= 10)

3/ do your calculation, i.e. :
#declare y=3*x+1

4/ define your object based on this calculation, i.e. :
sphere {<x, y, 0> 5}

5/ do something to keep x incrementing, i.e. :
#declare x=x+1

6/ close your loop :
#end

And you have it.
Hope this helps,
Al.
