# Repeat

Macros can use `+` in the argument list to indicate that an argument may repeat at least once, or `*`, to indicate that the argument may repeat zero or more times.

In the following example, surrounding the matcher with `$(...),+` will match one or more expression, separated by commas. Also note that the semicolon is optional on the last case.

    // `min!` will calculate the minimum of any number of arguments.
    macro_rules! find_min {
        // Base case:
        ($x:expr) => ($x);
        // `$x` followed by at least one `$y,`
        ($x:expr, $($y:expr),+) => (
            // Call `find_min!` on the tail `$y`
            std::cmp::min($x, find_min!($($y),+))
        )
    }

    fn main() {
        println!("{}", find_min!(1u32));
        println!("{}", find_min!(1u32 + 2 , 2u32));
        println!("{}", find_min!(5u32, 2u32 * 3, 4u32));
    }
