Hi Jim, src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/String.java
2972 * This method may be used to create space padding for 2973 * formatting text or zero padding for formatting numbers. 2974 * @param count number of times to repeat 2975 * @return A string composed of this string repeated 2976 * {@code count} times or the empty string if count 2977 * or length is zero. 2978 * @throws IllegalArgumentException if the {@code count} is 2979 * negative. I don't know whether the JavaDoc style guide requires it or not, but I would put an empty line before @param, @return and @ throws to improved readability. 2983 throw new IllegalArgumentException("count is negative, " + count); "count is negative, " -> "count is negative: " test/jdk/java/lang/String/StringRepeat.java 102 static void VERIFY(String result, String string, int repeat) { Why is the method name in uppercase?
