I'm suppose to write a Ruby program for the following:

A user is asked to input a string and a non-negative value for an integer n. The front of the string is the first 3 characters, or whatever is there if the string is less than length 3. The program needs to return n copies of the front.

Can someone help me out with what exactly I'm being asked to do. There's something about the wording of this that just doesn't make sense.

If I understand correctly, they want

Example 1:
input:

This is a string
5

output

ThiThiThiThiThi

5 times the first 3 letters.

Example 2:
input:

ab
3

output

ababab

There were only 2 letters in the string, so 3 times the two letters
