Write a java method:
public static String repeat(String str, int num)
that returns the string str repeated n times.
For Example: repeat("delta", 4) returns "deltadeltadeltadelta".
Write a Java method toDecimalString() that receives a string with hexadecimal symbols andreturns another string where every hexadecimal symbol is converted individually to its decimalrepresentation. If the received string contains a wrong hexadecimal value, it should return an errormessage.To test your method, write a main() method that enables the user to input a string in hexadecimalformat, removes eventual extra spaces from it, and makes all characters of the string in upper case.Then, sends this string to toDecimalString() and displays the returned string (decimal format orerror message).Hints:1. To declare an empty string use: String newString = "";2. The hexadecimal system is composed of 16 symbols: 0 to 9 and A to F.a. To check if a character c is a digit you can use: Character.isDigit(c);b. The decimal representation of A is 10, B is 11, C is12, D is 13, E is 14, and F is 15.
Run Example 1:Enter a hexadecimal string: 2gkDecimal value is: Wrong hexadecimal value (g)

Write a method that takes a String and a character as inputs and returns the number of instances of the input character within the input String.
For example, if "banana" and 'a' are input into the method, it should return 3.
If "apple" and 'p' are input, it should return 2
