(**) Replicate the elements of a list a given number of times.

repli :: [a] -> Int -> [a]
repli xs n = concatMap (replicate n) xs

or, in Pointfree style:

repli = flip $ concatMap . replicate

alternatively, without using the replicate function:

repli :: [a] -> Int -> [a]
repli xs n = concatMap (take n . repeat) xs

or, using the list monad:

repli :: [a] -> Int -> [a]
repli xs n = xs >>= replicate n
