Question

I am trying to write a recursive method to print n number of asteriks in a line and create a new line at the end.

So, TriangleOps.line(5);

would print

    *****

This is the code I wrote:

    public static void line (int n){
    if(n>0){
    System.out.println("*");
    line(n-1);
    }}

instead it prints

    *
    *
    *
    *
    *

with a lot of space at the end. Can anyone tell me how to remove the line breaks?

Answer 1

Use

System.out.print();

instead

println(); method adds new line character at the end by it self
