So like this?  
def print_n(s,n):
    i = 0
    while i < n:
        print s,
        i += 1

print_n('a',3)

So this is basically making i bigger by +1 every time the while loop passes 
until it passes n, then it becomes false right?  

Also, with this exercise it’s using a doctest so I don’t actually call the 
function so I can’t figure out a way to make the string’s print on separate 
lines without changing the doctest code?  

Thanks for all of the help!
