    That makes no sense at all to me. Why not pick some less "complicated" problems and work your way up to the Good Stuff.

    Just look the problem. Take it a step at a time. I assume that you can create text file that you can compile and execute with Java.


    Then...

     
    //Create a public class with whatever appropriate name you choose.
     
    //Here's what goes in the class:
     
    //Make three functions:
     
    static int f1(int n)
    {
        // Calculate the sum of the first n integers.
        // Maybe with a for(){} loop.
     
        // Return the square of that sum.
    } // End of f1()
     
     
    static int f2(int n)
    {
        // Calculate the value of n times (n+1) divided by 2.
     
        // Return that value.
    } // End of f2()
     
    static int f3(int n)
    {
        // Calculate the sum of the cubes of the first n integers.
        // Maybe with a for(){} loop.
     
        // Return that sum.
    } // End of f3()
     
    static void main(String [] args)
    {
        // Make a for(){} loop that lets an integer variable, n, go
        // from 1 through 20.
     
        //
        // Here's the body of that loop.
        //
        BEGIN LOOP
            // Declare integer variables sum1, sum2, sum3.
            //
            // Let sum1 = f1(n), sum2 = f2(n) and sum3 = f3(n).
            //
            // Print values of n, sum1, sum2, sum3.
        END LOOP
    } // End of main()


    Cheers!

    Big help to start with. We're about to pick randomly by our instructor. I've just got no luck. By the way, thank you. Probably I'm not good at programming but it's required for us to do this. Thanks a lot.
