title: Is there a Racket builtin to repeat an element n times as a list?
body: <p>I realize this is trivially to implement myself, but I was curious if Racket has a builtin or syntactic equivalent to the following in Python:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-py prettyprint-override"><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; n = 5
  &gt;&gt;&gt; element = "arbitrary string"
  &gt;&gt;&gt; [element] * n
  ['arbitrary string', 'arbitrary string', 'arbitrary string', 'arbitrary string', 'arbitrary string']
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If not, what is the idiomatic way to do this sort of thing in Racket? Right now my way of doing the above in Racket is:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-lisp prettyprint-override"><code>
  (let ((n 5)
        (element "arbitrary string"))
    (map (λ (x) element)
         (range n)))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any suggestions are immensely appreciated, thanks!</p>
