Well, consider the soft-coded repeat () function:

function repeat (object x, integer len)
sequence ret
    ret = {}
    for index = 1 to len do
        ret = append (ret, x)
    end for
    return ret
end function

Reproduce does the same, except:

    ret = ret & x

See the difference ?
We have two operators, but only one repeat () function..
