Nested For-Loop Problem...Driving me NUTS

[tipster3000]

Hello, I need to reproduce this pattern using one main for loop and one nested for loop.

43210
543210
6543210
76543210
876543210
9876543210

And here is what I coded, but I can't seem to make it the right way.

for (int x = 0; x < 10; x++)
         {
             for (int y = 0; y < x; y++)
             {
                 System.out.print(y);
             }
             System.out.println();
         }

What output does that give you?

01234
012345
0123456
01234567

This is what output I get. Close, but no cigar.

OK, it looks like you have half of it down. Now, what can you change about your loops to change the order in which these numbers appear?

HINT: You've seen i++...ever hear of i--? It subtracts 1 from i every time it executes, much like i++ adds one to i every time it executes.

Have a close look at both loops when they get executed for the first time: x == 0.
The inner loop doesn't print anything at all. Change that '<' sign to '<=' and see
what happens then. I know what happens: the correct number of rows are printed
but the numbers are still wrong: i.e. the digits are printed in increasing order but
you want them in decreasing order. Figure it out.

kind regards,
