if you meant:
   --x={1,2, {3,4, {5,6} } }
   --y=reproduce(x,3)
   --print(y)
   output:{{1,2,{3,4,{5,6}}},{1,2,{3,4,{5,6}}},{1,2,{3,4,{5,6}}}}
then there is no need for a seperate function 'reproduce'.
as function reproduce is simply:
   function reproduce(object z, integer num)
      return repeat(z,num)
   end function
which means you could have simply said:
   --y=repeat(x,3)
instead of y=reproduce(x,3) as above.

if, however, you mean something else, then i'm not
sure what that would be.
