Re: Box Set
You input a letter. Then you print it its place in the alphabet time(for example b would be bb).
Then you print it again and then add the letter before it, its corresponding position number of times.
Continue adding as seen in example until a is reached.
Ex. d
dddd //The letter its postions times
dddd ccc // letter again and letter before its position times
dddd ccc bb // continuing on
dddd ccc bb a // finished
Re: Box Set
What code do you have so far, where exactly are you stuck?
// Json
Re: Box Set
I have use multiple for loops, but i have had trouble getting it to print the middle line for example
I have been able to print(for ex.f) ffffff and ffffff eeeee dddd ccc bb a, but i cannot figure out the for loop required to keep adding characters while keeping the previous ones.
Re: Box Set
Save a string of what you're printing out.
String output = ""; for (number of lines to print out) output += number of characters to add System.out.println(output);
