Question

I was asked to write a program to create an "E" shape by using an array using java. The final result should be as follows:

EEEEEEE
E
E
EEEE
E
E
EEEEEEE

i have the original function to display this, but can't figure out how to alter this function to print the above pattern. THe original funtion is as follows:

package javaapplication1;

class JavaApplication1 {

static int array[][] = new int[7][7];

public static void main(String[] args) {

char ar[]={'E','E','E','E','E','E','E'};
int i,j,s=0;
for(i=0;i<ar.length;i++)
{
if(i==1||i==2||i==4||i==5)s=1;
else if(i==3)s=4;
else s=7;
for(j=0;j<s;j++)
{
System.out.print(ar[i]);
}
System.out.println();
}
}
}

Explanation / Answer

package javaapplication1;

public class JavaApplication1

{
public static void main(String[] args)

{

char[] array = {'E','_'};

int s =0; for(int i=0;i<7;i++) { if(i==1 || i==2|| i==4 || i==4 || i==5)

s=6;

else if(i==3)

s=3;

else

s=0;

for(int j=0;j<s;j++)

{

System.out.print(array[1]);

}

for(int j=s;j<7;j++)

{

System.out.print(array[0]);

}

System.out.println();

}
}
}
