This is what the exercise has as examples…
"""Print the string `s`, `n` times.
Parameters
----------
s -- A string
n -- an integer, the number of times to
print `s'
Examples
--------
>>> print_n("hello", 3)
hello
hello
hello
>>> print_n("bye", 0)
>>> print_n("a", 6)
a
a
a
a
a
a
"""
assert isinstance(s, str)
assert isinstance(n, int)
#TODO: Implement the function

I’m not sure what assert isinstance means?
This is what I have, it works but I’m not sure it’s what the exercise is asking
for.
n = 5
def print_n(s, n):
while n > 0:
print s * n
break
print_n("hello\n", 10)
