5. print str1+str2

6. print str2*n2

Answer:

The first error is in line 7 . For string concatenation, both the operands must be string and for addition both the operands must be numeric . In line 7, str1 is of type string and str2 is of type int. 

Corrections for the above error will be:

1. print str1*n1 
2. print str1 + str1[n2]
3. print str1 + str2  
4. print str1 +chr(n1) 

The second error is in line 8. For replication operation, the second operand must be numeric and for concatenation, the operator must be *.

Corrections for the above error will be:

1. print(str1*n1)  
2. print(str1*n2)  
3. print(str2*n1)  
4. print(str2 * n2)  
5. print(str1+ str2)
