repeat

Language/Type: Python lists collections

Write a function repeat that takes a list of strings and an integer k as parameters and that replaces every string with k copies of that string. For example, if the list stores the values ["how", "are", "you?"] before the function is called and k is 4, it should store the values ["how", "how", "how", "how", "are", "are", "are", "are", "you?", "you?", "you?", "you?"] after the function finishes executing. If k is 0 or negative, the list should be empty after the call.

Function: Write a Python function as described, not a complete program.
