In a DATA step, if the REPEAT function
returns a value to a variable that has not previously been assigned a length,
then that variable is given a length of 200 bytes.
The REPEAT function returns a character value consisting
of the first argument repeated n times. Thus,
the first argument appears n+1 times in the result.
