Is there a function in Haskell that can replicate Chars and Strings
For example say I had 'A' I could call the function like so:
replicate 'A' 5 ~> "AAAAA"
string haskell char concatenation replication

Yes, exact same name but the arguments are switched.
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.6.0.1/docs/Prelude.html#v:replicate
If you go to hoogle you can search functions by type signature and name.
http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/?hoogle=Char+-%3E+Int+-%3E+String
See that replicate
was the 3rd result.
Bit of a stupid question but thanks!

It's replicate in the prelude.
