R help - Aug 2013 - for loop of a geometric sequence

so I have to create a for loop of the geometric sequence
h(x,n)=1+x+x^2+x^3^4...x^n.  I know that it would be easier to simply
vectorize the sequence to x^(0:n), but I am required to make the loop, and I
can't wrap my brain around how to loop it because the equation  is so
simple.

So look at the examples found in
  ?Control
and give it a try.
