title: Running program multiple times using batch script
body: <p>I have a program I wrote that I need to run multiple times. I tried writing a batch script to do this but it's not working correctly.</p>
  
  <p>I tried using</p>
  
  <pre><code>@echo off
  start polymer.exe
  start polymer.exe
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and also tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>@echo off
  for /l %%X in (1,1,2) do (start polymer.exe)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>polymer.exe writes a number out to a file every time it is run and very rarely will 2 numbers be identical but when I run these scripts I get two identical numbers in the output. Any ideas why this is happening?</p>
  
  <p>OS is Windows 7</p>
