repeat questions

`String.prototype.repeat` returns a new string with the specified number of copies of the original string, concatenated together. 

const str = 'abc';
const repeated = str.repeat(3);
console.log(repeated); // 'abcabcabc'

The `ngFor` directive in Angular is a structural directive used to iterate over a list and repeat a block of HTML for each item. It simplifies rendering lists of items by automatically creating and managing the DOM elements based on the array data. For example, using `*ngFor='let item of items'` within a template will generate a list where each item in the `items` array is represented in the rendered HTML. `ngFor` also provides local variables like `index`, `first`, `last`, and `even` for more control over the iteration process.

Use a hash map to count the frequency of each character, then iterate through the string to find the first character with a count of 1. For example, in 'swiss', the first non-repeating character is 'w'.
