Sample problem for beginner

Question

Hey there,

I’m just starting out and came across this sample problem.

Write a program to take x and y as input and output the string x, repeated y times.

Sample Input
hi
3

Sample Output
hihihi

I tried the solution of:

x = input (‘Hi’)
y = int(input(3))
print (x * y)

And this does not work. Thanks ahead for any insight.

Answer 1

try

x = input()
y = int(input())
print(x*y)
