Subject: [mg54924] [mg54878] repeating elements in a list
Hello,
suppose I have list
lst={A, B, C}
and I want to create a new list, where all elements are repeated n times
so that (for n=3):
newlst={A, A, A, B, B, B, C, C, C}
I have the following code to do this:
n=3;
newlst=Flatten[Table[Table[lst[[i]], {n}], {i, Length[lst]}]];
but I'm pretty sure, that there must be a more elegant way to solve the
problem.
thank you
