Repeat

Input: Repeat(x, n)
$$\underbrace{x, \ldots, x}_{n \text{ times}}$$

Repeating sequence. This is a syntactical construct which does not represent a mathematical object on its own. It can be interjected among the arguments to a function or operator.

Input: Repeat(1, 2, 3, n)
$$\underbrace{1, 2, 3, \ldots, 1, 2, 3}_{\left(1, 2, 3\right) \; n \text{ times}}$$

A repeated run of several elements.

Input: List(Repeat(a, n))
$$\left[\underbrace{a, \ldots, a}_{n \text{ times}}\right]$$

A repeated element in a list.

Input: Tuple(Repeat(1, N), 0, Repeat(1, 2, 3, M), 1, 2)
$$\left(\underbrace{1, \ldots, 1}_{N \text{ times}}, 0, \underbrace{1, 2, 3, \ldots, 1, 2, 3}_{\left(1, 2, 3\right) \; M \text{ times}}, 1, 2\right)$$

Repeated elements among other elements in a tuple.

Input: f(0, 0, Repeat(1, n), 2)
$$f\!\left(0, 0, \underbrace{1, \ldots, 1}_{n \text{ times}}, 2\right)$$

A repeated argument in a function call.
