List context.

Item context, for a list repetition operator. Doesn't really make sense,
and I think a warning or error message would be more appropriate.

I think you meant either:

    my @add = $string xx $repeat;

or:

    my $add = $string x $repeat;

Or perhaps:

    my $add = [ $string xx $repeat ];
    # This is what your current code does, but I think it's best if Perl
    # enforced that you be explicit about the [].
