Hey everybody,

 

For my school i have to fix these following assingments

 

1

22

333

4444

55555

 

 

 

and this one

 

11111

2222

333

44

5

 

i now you need a loop for this and counting down but i am really stuk

Ok i've done the first half for you...

 

<?php
for ($count = 1; $count <= 5; $count +=1) {
for ($i = 1; $i <= $count; $i ++) {
echo $count;
}
echo "<br />";
}
?>

 

Considering it's school work might be best for you to try and resolve the second half yourself.

No worries.

 

The first for statement is the one which will need to be changed.

 

Basically set the loop count to the maximum loops you require. Then set the lowest times to loop (1) and then set the final variable to deduct 1 each time instead of add 1.

 

It will end up looking like;

 

for ($count = 5; $count >= 1; $count -=1) {

 

That's it. Just make sure you comment your code and give the variables valid names or they'll wonder how you did it...

Shouldn't be too hard to spot there is a definite pattern there

Start by creating a description of the rules for the pattern as you would describe to another human. Then figure out how you will do it in the code. In this case I would describe it as follows:

 

Starting with the number 1, perform the following process for 5 iterations:

On each iteration create a number that

1) starts with the digit matching the iteration count

2) contains sequentially numbered digits up to the same number as the iteration count

How did you get on? Solved?
