I don't even know where to start

Intro level problem; should be easy



Given an int variable k that has already been declared, use a while loop to print a single line consisting of 97 asterisks. Use no variables other than k .

Here your aim is to print 97 asterisks in one line. So you have to start a counter and let k be the counter and initialise it by 0.

Now start a while loop with the condition that is k < 97(see your counter starts with 0).

Inside the loop print one asterisk and increment the counter. So the loop will keep on printing the asterisks for k=0,1,2,.......,96 and when the value of k will become 97 the loop terminates and you will get 97 asterisks in one line.

So give a try.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int k=0;
while(k<97)
{
cout<<"*"<<endl;
k++;
}
}

Try this one....

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int k=0;
while(k<97)
{
cout<<"*\n"<<endl;
k++;
}
}

D_C

If you want a row of 97 asterisks, instead of a column of 97 asterisks, The output statement should be cout << "*"; instead of cout << "*" << endl;

hi,
i am writing a sample code for that in my standard as follows


int k;
k = 1;
while( k <= 97)
{
printf("*");
k++;
}

int k=97;
while(k--) cout << '*';
