Angular 2 – NgFor using numbers instead collections

…for example…

<div class="month" *ngFor="#item of myCollection; #i = index">
...
</div>

Is possible to do something like…

<div class="month" *ngFor="#item of 10; #i = index">
...
</div>

…without appeal to a non elegant solution like:

<div class="month" *ngFor="#item of ['dummy','dummy','dummy','dummy','dummy',
'dummy','dummy','dummy']; #i = index">
...
</div>
