STRING$

A function returning N concatenations of a string.

A$=STRING$(N,"hello")
B$=STRING$(10,"-*-")
C$=STRING$(Z%,S$)

You can use this function to print repeated copies of a string. It is useful for printing headings or underlinings. The last example for PRINT uses the STRING$ function to print the column numbers across the page. For example,

PRINT STRING$(4,"-=*=-")

would print

-=*=--=*=--=*=--=*=-

and

PRINT STRING$(3,"0123456789")

would print

012345678901234567890123456789
