The **`repeat()`** method of the String class in Javascript creates a new string that contains a specified number of copies of a provided string. The copies of the provided string are concatenated to construct the new string.

The process is illustrated below:

The prototype of the `repeat()` method is shown below:

```Java
string.repeat(count)
```

In the command shown above, `string` represents any string object.

<h2>Parameters</h2>

The `repeat()` method takes a single mandatory parameter, i.e., an integer that specifies the number of times the string needs to be repeated.

<h2>Return value</h2>

The `repeat()` method returns a new string that contains the specified number of copies of the provided string.

<h2>Example</h2>

The code below shows how the `repeat()` method works in Javascript:

// initialize source string
var source = "Javascript with Educative! ";

// create new repeat string
var repeatString = source.repeat(5);

// print strings
console.log("The original string was:\'", source, "\'.");
console.log("The new repeat string is: \'", repeatString, "\'.");

<h2>Explanation</h2>

First, a string variable, `source`, is initialized. The final character to the string `source` is a space character to allow for separation between the copies of the string when the `repeat()` method is invoked.

The `repeat()` method in line $5$ is invoked with the number of copies specified to be $5$. Consequently, the `repeat()` method concatenates $5$ copies of `source` and returns the newly created string.
