title: Repeat a string n times and print n lines of it
body: <p>i've been stuck on a question for some time now:</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking to create a python function that consumes a string and a positive integer. The function will print the string n times, for n lines. I <strong>cannot</strong> use loops, i must only use recursion</p>
  
  <p>e.g.</p>
  
  <pre><code>repeat("hello", 3)
  
  hellohellohello
  hellohellohello
  hellohellohello
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>whenever i try to make a function that does this, the function decreases the length of the string, progressively:</p>
  
  <p>e.g.</p>
  
  <pre><code>repeat("hello", 3)
  
  hellohellohello
  hellohello
  hello
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>here's what my code looks like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def repeat(a, n):
  if n == 0:
      print(a*n)
  else:
      print(a*n)
      repeat(a, n-1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>any help would be appreciated, thanks!</p>
