String.prototype.repeat现在是ES6标准。

'abc'.repeat(3); //abcabcabc

只是另一个重复函数:

function repeat(s, n) {
  var str = '';
  for (var i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    str += s;
  }
  return str;
}

各种方法的测试:

var repeatMethods = {
    control: function (n,s) {
        /* all of these lines are common to all methods */
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        return '';
    },
    divideAndConquer:   function (n, s) {
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        with(Math) { return arguments.callee(floor(n/2), s)+arguments.callee(ceil(n/2), s); }
    },
    linearRecurse: function (n,s) {
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        return s+arguments.callee(--n, s);
    },
    newArray: function (n, s) {
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        return (new Array(isNaN(n) ? 1 : ++n)).join(s);
    },
    fillAndJoin: function (n, s) {
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        var ret = [];
        for (var i=0; i<n; i++)
            ret.push(s);
        return ret.join('');
    },
    concat: function (n,s) {
        if (n==0) return '';
        if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
        var ret = '';
        for (var i=0; i<n; i++)
            ret+=s;
        return ret;
    },
    artistoex: function (n,s) {
        var result = '';
        while (n>0) {
            if (n&1) result+=s;
            n>>=1, s+=s;
        };
        return result;
    }
};
function testNum(len, dev) {
    with(Math) { return round(len+1+dev*(random()-0.5)); }
}
function testString(len, dev) {
    return (new Array(testNum(len, dev))).join(' ');
}
var testTime = 1000,
    tests = {
        biggie: { str: { len: 25, dev: 12 }, rep: {len: 200, dev: 50 } },
        smalls: { str: { len: 5, dev: 5}, rep: { len: 5, dev: 5 } }
    };
var testCount = 0;
var winnar = null;
var inflight = 0;
for (var methodName in repeatMethods) {
    var method = repeatMethods[methodName];
    for (var testName in tests) {
        testCount++;
        var test = tests[testName];
        var testId = methodName+':'+testName;
        var result = {
            id: testId,
            testParams: test
        }
        result.count=0;

        (function (result) {
            inflight++;
            setTimeout(function () {
                result.start = +new Date();
                while ((new Date() - result.start) < testTime) {
                    method(testNum(test.rep.len, test.rep.dev), testString(test.str.len, test.str.dev));
                    result.count++;
                }
                result.end = +new Date();
                result.rate = 1000*result.count/(result.end-result.start)
                console.log(result);
                if (winnar === null || winnar.rate < result.rate) winnar = result;
                inflight--;
                if (inflight==0) {
                    console.log('The winner: ');
                    console.log(winnar);
                }
            }, (100+testTime)*testCount);
        }(result));
    }
}

使用分治法的递归解:

function repeat(n, s) {
    if (n==0) return '';
    if (n==1 || isNaN(n)) return s;
    with(Math) { return repeat(floor(n/2), s)+repeat(ceil(n/2), s); }
}

function repeat(pattern, count) {
  for (var result = '';;) {
    if (count & 1) {
      result += pattern;
    }
    if (count >>= 1) {
      pattern += pattern;
    } else {
      return result;
    }
  }
}

你可以在JSFiddle上测试它。以hacky Array为基准。粗略地说，我的速度是10倍(Chrome)到100倍(Safari)到200倍(Firefox)(取决于浏览器)。

disfated的答案提高了5-7%。

通过在计数> 1处停止来展开循环，并在循环之后执行额外的result += pattnern concat。这将避免循环最终使用以前未使用的模式+=模式，而不必使用昂贵的if检查。 最终的结果是这样的:

String.prototype.repeat = function(count) {
    if (count < 1) return '';
    var result = '', pattern = this.valueOf();
    while (count > 1) {
        if (count & 1) result += pattern;
        count >>= 1, pattern += pattern;
    }
    result += pattern;
    return result;
};
