Need help with rectangle program!

[Carsomyr]

I'm assigned to create a rectangle with inputs of height and width using the drawLine method and loops using asterisks(*).

I've done this without methods on a triangle, but I can't figure this one out.

Please help! thanks

Can we please see your code (not methods) dealing with triangles?

kind regards,

Actually, I have the code for a square program that does similar to the same thing.

Rectangle is more confusing because I need to get 2 inputs, height and width, and determine the rectangle from there, which I'm stuck at, if someone can check out the square code and figure something out for a rectangle. Here it is..


[CODE=java]import java.util.Scann er;

/*************** *************** *************** *
* *
* Prints a square of size *
* given by the user. *
* Uses the drawLine() method. *
* *
*************** *************** *************** */

public class Square {

public static void main(String[] args) {

int squareSize;

do {

squareSize = getSquareSize() ;
drawSquare(squa reSize);
System.out.prin tln();

} while (squareSize >= 0);

}

/*
* Prompts user to input number
* returns input as size of square to print
*/
public static int getSquareSize() {

int squareInput;
Scanner myScanner = new Scanner(System. in);
System.out.prin t("Enter square size (negative to exit): ");
squareInput = myScanner.nextI nt();

return squareInput;

}

/*
* Prints a square of given size
*/
public static void drawSquare(int size) {

for (int i=1; i<=size; i++) {

drawLine(size);
System.out.prin tln();

}

}

/*
* Prints a line of given length
*/
public static void drawLine(int length) {

for (int i=1; i<=length; i++)
System.out.prin t("*");

}

}[/CODE]

Have a look at this code ...........

[code=java]
int length = 100, height = 200;
for(int i=0;i<length;i+ +)
System.out.prin tln("*");
for(int i=1;i<height-1;i++){
System.out.prin tln("*");
for(int j=1;j<length-1;j++)
System.out.prin tln(" ");
System.out.prin tln("*");
}
for(int i=0;i<length;i+ +)
System.out.prin tln("*");
[/code]

Enjoy this code.
Good Luck !
