In Quiz:
	def pos int*9 = 1
	rep sum pos subt [at control-break]
will get you a counted series, but no way to give it an initial value.

QTP will allow you to set an initial value, and there are several ways to
achieve what you want, depending how you're going to load the initial value.

You could use a global temp, with one request to initialize it, then a second
request with an item count statement; or you could do it all in one with an
item count initial statement.

ITEM control-number COUNT [AT control-break] INITIAL base-number
