Thread: Stripes (asterisk patterns) problem

Hi guys I need to make a program that does stripes, checkerboard, and double diagonal. I can not get the stripes to work any suggestions?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class AsciiArt {
public static void main(String[] args){
int pattern;
Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Choose one of the following patterns by pressing the corresponding number");
System.out.println("1) Stripes");
System.out.println("2) Chcker Board");
System.out.println("3) Double diagonal (aka the X)");
pattern=input.nextInt();
int number;
System.out.println("Input a size (must be larger than 1)");
number=input.nextInt();
if(pattern==1){
for(int i=1;i<=number;i++){
for(int j=1;j<=number;i++){
if(j%2==1){
System.out.print("*");
}
else{
System.out.print(" ");
}
System.out.println("");
}
}
}
}
}

import java.util.Scanner;
public class AsciiArt {
	public static void main(String[] args){
		int pattern;
		Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.println("Choose one of the following patterns by pressing the corresponding number");
		System.out.println("1) Stripes");
		System.out.println("2) Chcker Board");
		System.out.println("3) Double diagonal (aka the X)");
		pattern=input.nextInt();
		int number;
		System.out.println("Input a size (must be larger than 1)");
		number=input.nextInt();
		if(pattern==1){
			for(int row=1;row<=number;row++){
				for(int column=1;column<=number;column++){
					if(column%2==1){
						System.out.print("*");
					}
						else{
							System.out.print(" ");
						}
				System.out.println("");
				}
			}
		}
		else if(pattern==2){
				for(int row=1;row<=number;row++){
					for(int column=1;column<=number;column++){
						if(row+column%2==0){
							System.out.print("*");}
						else if((row+column)%2==1){
							System.out.print(" ");}
						}
					System.out.println("");
					}
				}
 
		}		
	}

I want to get
* * *
* * *
* * *
* * *
* * *
for the stripes and
* * *
_* *
* * *
_* *
* * *
for the checkerboard

This is the output right now for stripes
Choose one of the following patterns by pressing the corresponding number
1) Stripes
2) Chcker Board
3) Double diagonal (aka the X)
1
Input a size (must be larger than 1)

and this is the output for checkerboard
Choose one of the following patterns by pressing the corresponding number
1) Stripes
2) Chcker Board
3) Double diagonal (aka the X)
2
Input a size (must be larger than 1)
