❔ Unicode Art

Ask the user for an unsigned integer N. Then, create Unicode-Art as an M by M grid, where M = 3*N+2, consisting of spaces and the characters |, -, and +; N is the number of lines/characters between intersections, i.e. + signs. It should return something like this: (image)

What do you have so far?

MelioOP•2y ago

I'm rn trying to learn logic behind it I don't really know where to start

Thinker•2y ago

Step 1: Do you know how to write to the console?

MelioOP•2y ago

Yes I know

Thinker•2y ago

Nice. Do you know how loops work?

MelioOP•2y ago

yes

That's all what I have rn

Maybe start with the code to do the --+--+-- line? Make that work as you vary N. Then move onto one of the other lines -- the | |. Get that working

MelioOP•2y ago

okay I will try

canton7•2y ago

Then start putting it together -- do the right number of | | lines, then a --+--+-- line, etc But, break the problem down into smaller problems, and solve those individually first

@canton7 thanks for help I done that

I will try second one

FWIW, I'd have probably written something like:

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine("+");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine("+");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine();

for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine("+");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine("+");
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
    Console.Write("-");
}
Console.WriteLine();

Or:

Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.Write("+");
Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.Write("+");
Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.WriteLine();

Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.Write("+");
Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.Write("+");
Console.Write(new string('-', n);
Console.WriteLine();

(for the --+--+-- lines) But yours looks like a sensible approach
