Can I multiply strings in java to repeat sequences?

In Python, we can easily multiply the stings.

count = 10
print '*' * count

Is there any similar option available in Java?

How about this??

System.out.println(String.format("%10s", "").replace(' ', '*'));

This gives me output as **********.

I believe this is what you want…

Update 1

int yournumber = 10;
System.out.println(String.format("%" + yournumber + "s","*").replace(' ', '*'));
