| \title{Repeat the Elements of a Character Vector} |
| \description{ |
| Repeat the character strings in a character vector a given number of |
| times (i.e., concatenate the respective numbers of copies of the |
| strings). |
| } |
| \usage{ |
| strrep(x, times) |
| } |
| \arguments{ |
| \item{x}{a character vector, or an object which can be coerced to a |
| character vector using \code{as.character}.} |
| \item{times}{an integer vector giving the (non-negative) numbers of |
| times to repeat the respective elements of \code{x}.} |
| } |
| \details{ |
| The elements of \code{x} and \code{times} will be recycled as |
| necessary (if one has no elements, and empty character vector is |
| returned). Missing elements in \code{x} or \code{times} result in |
| missing elements of the return value. |
| } |
| \value{ |
| A character vector with the elements of the given character vector |
| repeated the given numbers of times. |
| } |
| \examples{ |
| strrep("ABC", 2) |
| strrep(c("A", "B", "C"), 1 : 3) |
| ## Create vectors with the given numbers of spaces: |
| strrep(" ", 1 : 5) |
