Thread: Nested for loop

So, I got the pattern right, but I was wondering if anybody else had a different approach to print out the same pattern using 2 nested for loops.
When I try to include spaces in the inner loop to space the numbers it doesn't look the same. Any help?

Pattern III
---------1
-------2 1
-----3 2 1
---4 3 2 1

My code was:

  for(int i = 1; i <= 4; i++){
      System.out.println();
      for(int j = 4; j >= 1; j--){
          if(j <= i)System.out.print(j);
         else System.out.print(" ");
      }	
  }

If you would like to do it in another way, you can use String formatting. First build the string using an inner for loop, set the required width and print.
