\title{Repeat matrix}
\usage{
repmat(mx, n)
}
\arguments{
\item{mx}{matrix}
\item{n}{either a scalar with the number of replications in both rows and columns or a 2-length vector with individual repetitions.}
}
\value{
matrix replicated over `ncol(mx) * n` columns and `nrow(mx) * n` rows
}
\description{
Repeats a matrix over n columns and rows
}
\details{
This function was created to replicate the behavior of a homonymous
function on Matlab
}
\note{
The Matlab implementation of this function accepts `n` with length > 2.
It should also be noted that a concatenated vector in R, e.g. `c(5, 2)`, becomes a column vector when coerced to matrix, even though it may look like a row vector at first glance. This is important to keep in mind when considering the expected output of this function. Vectors in R make sense to be seen as column vectors, given R's Statistics-oriented paradigm where variables are usually disposed as columns in a dataset.
