Explicação Oficial / Explicações da Comunidade
In the vi editor, commands can be repeated or applied to multiple lines by prefixing the command with a number. For example, 4l moves the cursor four characters to the right, and 2yj yanks two lines (the current line and the next) into the buffer. This numeric prefix is a fundamental vi feature that allows efficient repetition of movement, deletion, yanking, and other operations.
