STRING$ is a BASIC command used by some BASIC languages and is not the same as STR$. Knowing its meaning is necessary for SINCLAIR BASIC replacement.
STRING$ is used to create strings made up of the same character in graphics, as for borders. You define the character and the desired number of repeats.
SINCLAIR BASIC replacement for 10 B$=STRING$(32, "-") is :
100 LET T$="": FOR N=1 TO 32: LET T$=T$+"-": NEXT N: LET B$=T$
