JavaScript string.repeat() Method
The string.repeat() is an inbuilt function in JavaScript that is used to build a new string containing a specified number of copies of the string on which this function has been called.
Syntax:
string.repeat(count);
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter.
- count: count is an integer value that shows the number of times to repeat the given string. The range of the integer “count” is from zero (0) to infinity.

Below is an example of the string.repeat() Method.
Example 1: In this example, we will repeat the string value two times using the string.repeat() method and print it in the console.
Javascript
<script> A = "forGeeks"; a = A.repeat(2); console.log(a);</script> |
Output:
forGeeksforGeeks
Example 2: In this example, we will repeat the string value five times using the string.repeat() method and print it in the console.
Javascript
<script> // Taking a string "gfg" A = "gfg"; // Repeating the string multiple times a = A.repeat(5); console.log(a);</script> |
Output:
gfggfggfggfggfg
Example 3: In this example, we will repeat the string value 2.9 times using the string.repeat() method, we will see that it only prints two times as 2.9 is converted to 2.
Javascript
<script> // Taking a string "gfg" A = "gfg"; // Repeating the string 2.9 times i.e, 2 times // because 2.9 converted into 2 b = A.repeat(2.9); console.log(b);</script> |
Output:
gfggfg
