What would this function do if handed a non-integer, or completely
non-numeric, value for "reps"? Also, I am somewhat uncomfortable with the
notion of
uninitialized variables. And I suspect that "put before" might actually be a
bit faster than "put after", albeit the actual time difference isn't likely to
be significant in *most* cases. All of which said...
function stringRepeat2 DerText, Repz
switch
case Repz is not a number
return "Bad number of repetitions (alphabetic)"
break
case Repz is not an integer
return "Bad number of repetitions (decimal)"
break
default
put "" into Rezult
repeat Repz
put DerText before Rezult
end repeat
return Rezult
end switch
end stringRepeat
Hope this helps...
