Repeating String str_repeat function

Using str_repeat string function we can repeat a string by a number ( known as multiplier ). Say we want to repeat a string $ for ten times, here is the syntax for the function str_repeat.

str_repeat (input string, int multiplier );


Here is one example

echo str_repeat(“$”,10);


The above command will print $ ten times.

Now let us move to another example. How about printing such a pattern ?
