Many of you may have interacted with people from Russia on the internet at some point, and a subset of you may have noticed the slightly odd method they have of expressing themselves.

e.g. деинсталляцияудали играигру нуб))) - (forgive the google translate)

where the ))) are added for emphasis on the previous statement, I have been working on a theory that the ratio of )'s to the rest of the string is directly proportional to the amount of implied emphasis, however I oftentimes find it difficult to compute the ratio on the fly, as I am also trying to cope with a slew of abuse, so I would like the shortest possible code to help me calculate what the resulting string should be, for a value of enthusiasm between 0 and 500%, given the original, unenthusiastic string, this will aid my research greatly as I will not have to type out bulky scripts every time I wish to test my hypothesis.

So, the challenge:

write a full program or function, which, provided two arguments, a string of unknown length, and a number, in either integer format (between 0 and 500) or in decimal format (between 0 and 5, with 2 points of accuracy) will

  • return/display the original string, suffixed with a number of )'s
  • the number will be the calculated as a ratio of the input number to the string length.
  • so if the number 200, or 2.00 was provided, 200% of the string must be suffixed as )'s
  • the number of brackets rounded to in decimal situations does not matter.
  • script is required to support Printable ASCII characters.
  • only has to support one input number format, of your choice.

Examples:

"codegolf" 125 = codegolf)))))))))) "codegolf" 75 = codegolf)))))) "noob team omg" 0.5 = noob team omg)))))) "hi!" 4.99 = hi!))))))))))))))) 

Example code (PowerShell) (with decimal input):

Function Get-RussianString ([string]$InputStr,[decimal]$Ratio){ $StrLen = $InputStr.Length $SuffixCount = $StrLen * $Ratio $Suffix = [string]::New(")",$SuffixCount) return $InputStr + $Suffix } Get-RussianString "codegolf" 0.5 codegolf)))) 

This is so shortest code wins!
