Integer to string length in python?

Question

I am trying to create a function that takes an integer (n) and returns a string with n-amount of hashes.

Ex:

if n is 5, the string would be : #####

if n is 2 the string would be : ##

This function would be quite simple. But what is the problem you're having trying to create such a function? — EWit

Here's such a function:

def f(n):
    return '#' * n

Usage:

>>> f(5)
'#####'
>>> f(2)
'##'
