1. (30 points) Implement a function that takes a string, s, and an integer, n, as arguments. It then creates a new string with each character in s repeated n times in a row. Here are some examples: Input Output repeat characters("abc", 3) repeat characters("a",2) repeat characters("1234",1) repeat characters("1234",0) aaabbbcCC "1234" 4433 Use the following prototype: char repeat characters (char *s, int n) You may not use functions in string.h. Hint: you need to use malloc to allocate storage space for the new string, and return a pointer to the new array.

Explanation / Answer

#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

char * repeat_characters(char *s, int n)
{

   printf("%s ", s);

   int length = 0;

   int i = 0;

   char * newString;

   while(s[length] != '')
   {
           length++;

   } // finds length of string

   newString = (char*) malloc(length*n*sizeof(char));

   int k = 0;
   while(i < length)
   {
       int j=1;
       while(j<=n){
           newString[k++] = s[i];
           j++;
       }
     
       i++;
   }

   newString[k] = '';
   printf("%s", newString);

   return newString;

}

int main ()

{

   char string[100];

   int numReps = 0;

   printf("Enter a string: ");

   scanf("%s", string);

   printf(" Enter number of repetitions: ");

   scanf("%d", &numReps);

   repeat_characters(string, numReps);

   return 0;

}

/*

Sample run:

Enter number of repetitions: 3
abc
aaabbbccc
