Standard prelude name for fmap . const

Question

The composition fmap . const is a function that takes some constant and a set of elements and returns a set of elements in which all the elements in set are replaced with the constant.

For example, (fmap . const) 5 [1,2,7] returns [5,5,5].

Is there any standard prelude function that does exactly that?

Thanks!

You are looking for (<$) :: Functor f => a -> f b -> f a.
