 ### [`REPEAT()`](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/string-functions.html#function_repeat)
 
-以指定次数重复一个字符串
+`REPEAT()` 函数用于以指定次数重复一个字符串。
+
+示例：
+
+以下示例使用[递归的公共表表达式 (CTE)](/develop/dev-guide-use-common-table-expression.md#递归的-cte) 生成从 1 到 20 的数字序列，并使用 `REPEAT()` 函数重复对应次数的 `x` 字符串：
+
+```sql
+WITH RECURSIVE nr(n) AS (
+    SELECT 1 AS n 
+    UNION ALL 
+    SELECT n+1 FROM nr WHERE n<20
+)
+SELECT n, REPEAT('x',n) FROM nr;
+```
+
+```
++------+----------------------+
+| n    | REPEAT('x',n)        |
++------+----------------------+
+|    1 | x                    |
+|    2 | xx                   |
+|    3 | xxx                  |
+|    4 | xxxx                 |
+|    5 | xxxxx                |
+|    6 | xxxxxx               |
+|    7 | xxxxxxx              |
+|    8 | xxxxxxxx             |
+|    9 | xxxxxxxxx            |
+|   10 | xxxxxxxxxx           |
+|   11 | xxxxxxxxxxx          |
+|   12 | xxxxxxxxxxxx         |
+|   13 | xxxxxxxxxxxxx        |
+|   14 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxx       |
+|   15 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx      |
+|   16 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx     |
+|   17 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx    |
+|   18 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx   |
+|   19 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  |
+|   20 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
++------+----------------------+
+20 rows in set (0.01 sec)
+```
+
+以下示例演示了 `REPEAT()` 可以处理包含多个字符的字符串：
+
+```sql
+SELECT REPEAT('ha',3);
+```
+
+```
++----------------+
+| REPEAT('ha',3) |
++----------------+
+| hahaha         |
++----------------+
+1 row in set (0.00 sec)
+```
