How do I loop the wiggle effect? [URGENT]

ok so I've been searching all day and night and found something on how to loop the wiggle effect (Dan Ebberts's Expression on Looping wiggle())

He says to copy and paste this code:

 freq = 1; amp = 110; loopTime = 3; t = time % loopTime; wiggle1 = wiggle(freq, amp, 1, 0.5, t); wiggle2 = wiggle(freq, amp, 1, 0.5, t - loopTime); linear(t, 0,  loopTime, wiggle1, wiggle2) 

what do I do with this? how do I loop the wiggle effect?

P.S. Im trying to loop text

All help appreciated.

You're trying to 'loop text' doing what? wiggling position? - or something else?

What don't you understand about Dan's explanation and instructions?

Im trying to loop the wiggle effect, rotation, and position, with Dan's expression. I just don't know anything about what or where to put the code.

It loops automatically after 3 seconds in Dan's example. The expression merely blending between two wiggles with different seeds, since the wiggle itself isn't loopabable. The cutoff/ blending duration is determined by the loopTime parameter.
