Function repeat

Repeat the entire iterator the given amount. If the amount is zero (or negative), you'll end up with an empty iterator.

BEWARE: In order to be able to repeat everything, the entire collection must be kept in memory (as opposed to repeatEach where only a single element needs to be stored).

Example

pipe(
    itr8FromArray([ 'hello', 'world' ]),
    repeat(2)
  ) // => [ 'hello', 'world', 'hello', 'world' ]

Example

// creating an indentation function is easy (even if it's 0)
function getIndentation(indentationLevel, tabSize = 2) {
  const singleTab = pipe(
     itr8FromSingleValue(' '),
     repeat(tabSize),
     itr8ToSTring,
  );
  return pipe(
    itr8FromSingleValue(singleTab)
    repeat(indentationLevel),
    itr8ToSTring,
  );
}
getIndentation(3); // => '      ' (6 spaces)
