It all depends on what you want. If you want to check the result each time before repeating, then `C-x e e e'.... If you want to repeat only N times, then `C-u N C-x e'. if you want to repeat forever or until error, then `C-u 0 C-x e'. And of course `C-h k C-x e' explains this - much quicker than help-gnu-emacs. ;-)
