how do you create string of repeating characters?

[Daniel Billingsley]

How do I create a string consisting of a specified character repeated a
specified number of times?

Something like
String.Fill('x' , 10) to create "xxxxxxxxxx "

The best I see would be some hack using PadLeft() or (probably better) some
method written from scratch.

Hi Daniel,

String str = new String('x', 10);

This will do.
