I made an error I made a thousand times before.I had programmed an endless loop. But never did I see before so clear why it's called an endless loop.

I assume you're talking about the while-loop (because on my machine, it hangs just using 'from turtle...' or 'import turtle').
That looks to be a repeat-N-times loop. There isn't a dedicated statement for that, the closest Python feature would be 'for i in range(n)' with i a dummy loop variable.
