Take a look at Nest and NestList. reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/ref/NestList.html Don't forget to check NestWhile,NestWhileList, FixedPoint, FixedPointList. And this tutorial: reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/tutorial/… – David Carraher Dec 15 '12 at 14:04
You can do e.g. Nest[Sin, x, 5], look at this mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/7941/… – Artes Dec 15 '12 at 14:06

I get an easy one !!

Nest[Sin,x,10]
Out[8]= Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[Sin[x]]]]]]]]]]
