print "hi"

Write a function named printer. The function should take a single argument, count, and should print "Hi " as many times as the count argument. Remember, you can multiply a string by an integer.

not sure how to print "hi" multiple times with the "count" argument.

printer.py 
def printer(count):
    print("hi"*"{}")

printer(2)

All good to a level, until the point it mentioning, "Hi" as many times as the count argument, look into the point, string can multiply an integer hence, here the count argument is an integer, and Hi is a string => "Hi" * count

def printer(count):
    print("Hi" * count)
