   = DUP( string, times )

The DUP command allows you to duplicate portions of text within a program. This feature is especially useful when you need to repeat a sequence of characters multiple times, without having to retype it manually.

The DUP command can be combined with other commands to create more complex effects. You can concatenate the result of DUP with other strings to form sentences or paragraphs. You can assign the result of DUP to a variable for later use. You can combine it with other string manipulation functions to create even more customized effects. Displaying an increasing number of characters in a bar can use DUP, as well as to write tables or reports with fixed-width columns.

  PRINT DUP( "***", 10 )
