nested loop structure

Hello guys,

I am trying to make a code using a nested loop structure. How would I input a number and the output would be one line of asterisk?
I am trying to get my code to have an output like this:

enter int: 1
*
enter int: 2
**
enter int: 3
***
ect.

This is the code I have so far, but after you enter a int, it just counts the total lines I have specified.

Code Java:

---

import java.util.Scanner;
 
public class Loop1 {
 
public static void main(String[] args) {
 
Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );
 
String line;
 
System.out.println("Please enter the total number of lines to output, as any integer greater than 0 and less than 71:");
line = input.next();
 
for(int x=0; x<71; x++){
 
for(int y=0; y<=x; y++){
 
System.out.print("*");
}
System.out.println("");
}
}
}

I am confused as to what the requirements are. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, but you seem to have a nested loop to print a single line.

What I am trying to do it print out a line based upon the number the user inputs. When a user inputs a number, it is supposed to print off that manylines of asterisks. An example of the output I am trying to get is this:

enter int: 1
*
enter int: 5
*

package test;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Test {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner input = new Scanner( System.in );

String line;

System.out.println("Please enter the total number of lines to output, as any integer greater than 0 and less than 71:");
line = input.next();

for(int x=0; x<new Integer(line); x++){

for(int y=0; y<=x; y++){

System.out.print("*");
}
System.out.println("");
}
}
}
hope this will work fine as per your requirement.

thank you copeg, you are right, i did have set as a single line

This is awesome, thank you!

cs13, please read this before you post again: http://www.javaprogrammingforums.com...n-feeding.html

This is just my opinion but,
To his defense, I don't think this is "spoon feeding" or whatever you wanna call it. I wrote the code, just had a line wrong and he identified it. Its not like I posted the assignment and he did it for me. He just fixed a line.

It is spoon-feeding.

He posted a solution, which could have been done better, with no explanations on what he changed or why the code works in comparison.
He stripped the learning / researching process away from you.

Albeit it was a very simple problem, It's still very much regarded as spoon-feeding.
