Question

Write a java program that creates a parallelogram using astericks. The user will enter how wide and how many lines in the parallelogram. This is what I got but it is not a parallogram. Thanks

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Parallelogram
{
   public static void main (String [] args)
   {
       Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
       System.out.println();
       System.out.println("How many characters wide would you like the parallelogram?");
       int charactersPar = keyboard.nextInt();
       System.out.println("How many lines would you like in the parallelogram?");
       int trapezoidPar = keyboard.nextInt();

       for(int i = 0; i <= trapezoidPar; i++)
       {
           for(int j = charactersPar; j > 1; j--)
           {
               System.out.print(" ");
           }

           for(int k = 0; k <= charactersPar; k++)
           {
               System.out.print("*");
           }

           System.out.println();
           charactersPar++;
       }

   }

}

Explanation / Answer

import java.util.*;
public class drawTriangle{
public static void main(String[] args)
{int i,j,n;
Scanner in= new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println("Enter size of triangle:");
    n=in.nextInt();

    for(i=0;i<=n;i++)
         {for(j=0;j<i;j++)
              System.out.print("*");
            System.out.println();
            }
    for(i=n-1;i>0;i--)
         {for(j=0;j<i;j++)
              System.out.print("*");
            System.out.println();
            }
    System.out.println();
    System.out.println();
for(i=1;i<=50;i++)
   {j=i%10;   
     if(j==0)
         System.out.print('|');
    else
         System.out.print(' ');
    }
System.out.println();
for(i=1;i<=50;i++)
    System.out.print(i%10);
System.out.println();
    }   
    }
