display a string X times?

I'm being asked to represent an integer score value in asterisks
instead of just as a digit. I figured (as a newbie) I could just define
a string 'star' (as "*") and just call it like score * star..
apparently not. How can I do this? My other idea is using a while loop,
but I think this could be a bit unwieldy, for the scale of the program
it's for.
