    There is no boolean variable involved in this logic. It is only loops and math.

    Ok. Thats a start. You've printed the first line with some spaces and some *s
    Now add code to print out the next lines.
    You need a loop for the spaces and a loop for the *s

    Can you explain why you start with x=5 in the first for loop?

    It would help if you used variable names and added comments to the code like I did in post#12

    i gave a value of 5 to x so if then it goes back to that statement with an increment it will goes false and print an *s because the value of n is no longer equalled or greater than the value of x.

    but i know that's wrong also. because if it goes to System.out.print("*"); it will goes back to the first statement and will tell that every statement is false. And then it will always print *** infintely or what

    Now add code to print out the next lines: 2 to 5.
    You need a loop for the spaces and a loop for the *s

    Try it and see what happens.

    What is it you want those two statements to do?
    Can they be merged into a single statement?

    There are no true or false statements in this problem. It is done with loops and math.

    Try a very simple exercise:
    Write a loop to print x number of "*" on a line.
    If x is 0 you print none,
    if x is 1 you print 1
    if x is 2 you print 2
    etc

    Your code shown in the first post does it.

    I guess you should give up for now and try later.

    Come on back when you have had time to write the code.
    See post#42 It has as simple a suggestion as I can make.

    import java.io.*;
    public class Asterisk1
     {
          public static void main(String jpg[])
       {
           int n=4;
    	for(int x=1; x<=n; x++)
          {
    	System.out.print(" ");
    	}
    {
    	  for(int y=1; y<=x; y++)
             { 
    	  System.out.print("*");
    	  }
     
    	  System.out.println(); 
     
          }
       }
    }
