Nested For Loop to populate matrix

[jamesd0142]

Hi,

How about this :

[code=vb]
Private Sub Command1_Click( )
Dim i As Integer
Dim s As String
Dim k As Integer
Dim j As Integer
s = ""
k = -1
For i = 1 To 10
For j = 1 To 5
k = k + 1
s = s & " " & CStr(k)
Next
s = s & vbCrLf
Next
MsgBox s
End Sub

[/code]

I'm impressed, I couldnt work this out myself, i ould get the result but couldnt see how to use 2 for loops.

I believe Veena's code is still needlessly complex. Try this version...

[CODE=vb]Private Sub Command1_Click( )
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, s As String
For i = 0 To 49 Step 5
For j = i To i + 4
s = s & " " & j
Next
s = s & vbNewLine
Next
MsgBox s
End Sub[/CODE]This is part of the beauty of nested loops, of course - the inner one can make use of the counter value of the outer one. It can also change the value, but that's another story.
