repeat-string ![NPM version](https://www.npmjs.com/package/repeat-string) ![NPM monthly downloads](https://npmjs.org/package/repeat-string) ![NPM total downloads](https://npmjs.org/package/repeat-string) ![Linux Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/repeat-string)
Repeat the given string n times. Fastest implementation for repeating a string.
Install
Install with npm:
sh $ npm install --save repeat-string
Usage
[repeat](index.js#L41)
Repeat the given string the specified number of times.
Example:

js var repeat = require('repeat-string'); repeat('A', 5); //=> AAAAA
Params
- string {String}: The string to repeat
- number {Number}: The number of times to repeat the string
- returns {String}: Repeated string
Benchmarks
Repeat string is significantly faster than the native method (which is itself faster than repeating):
sh # 2x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (26,953,977 ops/sec) repeating █████████ (9,855,695 ops/sec) native ██████████████████ (19,453,895 ops/sec) # 3x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (19,445,252 ops/sec) repeating ███████████ (8,661,565 ops/sec) native ████████████████████ (16,020,598 ops/sec) # 10x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (23,792,521 ops/sec) repeating █████████ (8,571,332 ops/sec) native ███████████████ (14,582,955 ops/sec) # 50x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (23,640,179 ops/sec) repeating █████ (5,505,509 ops/sec) native ██████████ (10,085,557 ops/sec) # 250x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (23,489,618 ops/sec) repeating ████ (3,962,937 ops/sec) native ████████ (7,724,892 ops/sec) # 2000x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (20,315,172 ops/sec) repeating ████ (3,297,079 ops/sec) native ███████ (6,203,331 ops/sec) # 20000x repeat-string █████████████████████████ (23,382,915 ops/sec) repeating ███ (2,980,058 ops/sec) native █████ (5,578,808 ops/sec)
