I am new to serious programming with a bit of experience in elementary Pascal. I am currently trying to figure out how to create a hollow square with user defined parameters in C#. I've managed to get 3 out of the 4 sides but I am out of ideas on how to manage the fourth one. This is my code so far:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int height;
int width;
int counterH = 0;
int counterW2 = 0;
int counterW1 = 0;
Console.WriteLine("Please input the sizes of the square!");
Console.WriteLine("Please input the height of the square.");
height = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.WriteLine("Please input the width of the square");
width = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
while (counterW1 < width)
{
Console.Write("--");
counterW1++;}
Console.WriteLine();
while (counterH < height)
{
Console.WriteLine("|");
counterH++;
}
while (counterW2 < width)
{
Console.Write("--");
counterW2++;
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
I would also be happy if you can suggest an easier/better/more optimised solution if you think mine is bad. Thank you very much for your time!
In your while (counterH < height)
loop you should loop through your width-Value and place some spaces. At the End you can place a Pipe | again.
Use Console.Write()
and not Console.WriteLine()
at this position, because you dont want a LineFeed / CarriageReturn after your first Pipe.
Example:
while (counterH < height)
{
Console.Write("|");
int counterW3 = 0;
while (counterW3 < width)
{
Console.Write(" ");
counterW3++;
}
Console.Write("|" + System.Environment.NewLine);
counterH++;
}
