Introduced in v5.1.23

The cycle operator requires at least one parameter.

[cycle[<titles>],[step-size]]
  • titles : a title list to toggle in the input list cyclically. If no title from the parameter is present in the input, the first title is added. If a title from the parameter is present in the input, it is replaced with the next title from the parameter. Note that all titles specified in this parameter should be unique.
  • step-size: (optional). Defaults to 1. Specifies the number of steps in the parameter list to move each time. Can be a negative number.

Tip
While the cycle operator interprets its first parameter as a list of titles to cycle through, the toggle Operator accepts an unlimited number of distinct parameters and offers similar functionality.
