No, the \repeat take the place of the \fi. Also you should always end
numbers with a space or a \relax to avoid trouble due to tex trying to
expand the following commands in search for more numbers.
\newcount\startcnt
\newcount\tempcnta
\def\myloop#1{%
\tempcnta=\the\startcnt\relax%
\loop
\the\tempcnta,
\advance \tempcnta by 1
\ifnum\tempcnta<#1
\repeat
}
\myloop{10}
