For example, If i input the values values: {3, 2, 1}
I would get

Thats it:

public void print(int input) {
    for (int i = 0; i < input; i++) {
       System.out.print("*");
    }
}

EDIT by comment:

public static void print(int[] input) {
    for (int inp : input) {
        for (int i = 0; i < inp; i++) {
            System.out.print("*");
        }
        System.out.print(" ");
    }
}

public static void main(String... args) {
    print(new int[]{2, 5});
}

Produces the following output:
