    here's the algorithm+pseudocode that might help you solve this (am just saying, "instruction in plain english")

    1) write name of function (must accept an integer as parameter)
    2) start a loop using "for"
    3) from 1 to "whatever the integer parameter"...loop.... until current count is equal to "whatever the integer parameter"....increment count as you go
    4) for every loop....print a star

    here's the code.

     
    public void printStars(int numberOfStarsToPrint){
     
    //you might want to validate the parameter here (optional for you)
     
    // GB: solution removed
     
    }
     
    }

    With the printers they have now or the older versions, I think that an empty class method would do it. Printing it out. In a single line; an if ..then statement is enclosed in a while loop. Use of a System.out.println method. Increment or decrement each counter or variable loop iteration. It comes out like this. 10 9 8 7 6 5 3 2 1
