PyCharm Edu introduction course, string multiplication
<p>I'm new to Python and currently running the "Introduction to Python" course for PyCharm Edu. I'm having a problem with the following task (strings -> string multiplication)</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Python supports a string-by-number multiplication (but not the other
  way around!). </p>
  
  <p>Use hello to get the
  "hellohellohellohellohellohellohellohellohellohello" string ("hello"
  repeated 10 times).</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The default given code is </p>

<pre><code>hello = "hello"
ten_of_hellos = hello operator 10
print(ten_of_hellos)
</code></pre>

<p>so I just replace the word operator with the * sign, so I have</p>

<pre><code>hello = "hello"
ten_of_hellos = hello * 10
print(ten_of_hellos)
</code></pre>

<p>but I get an error saying "use multiplication". Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?</p>

<p>You are doing it right. They maybe are trying to teach you the difference between the string "hello" and The variable.</p>
