The * operator is used for multiplication when it operates in two integer or floating-point values. But when the * operator is used on one string value and one integer value, it becomes the string replication operator...

The * operator can be used with only two numeric values (four multiplication) or one string value and one integer value (for string replication). Otherwise, Python will just display an error message.
