Question

I do not know how to code this. I have tried several times.

Instructions CountByAnything.java + Modify the CountByFives application so that the user enters the value to count by. Start each new line after 10 values have been displayed. 1 public class CountByAnything 2 { // Modify the code below 4 public static void main(String args[]) { Grading final int START; final int STOP = 500; final int NUMBER_PER_LINE = 10; for(int i = START; i <= STOP; i += START) if( % NUMBER_PER_LINE == 0) System.out.println(); Write your Java code in the area on the right. Use the Run button to compile and run the code. Clicking the Run Checks button will run pre-configured tests against your code to calculate a grade. ] 13 14 } Once you are happy with your results, click the Submit button to record your score.

Answer 1

Hi. Here is the completed code for this problem. Before that, I have to tell you, there is a lot of confusions in this question. It is not clear that the value we receive from the user is to be used as increment value or start value or both. It is not clear that the stop value is still 500. I’m assuming that the value we read from input is both the start value and increment value, for example if the input is 3, the system will print 3 6 9 12 .., if the input is 7, the system will print 7 14 21 … until 500, separating every 10 values by a newline, and each value in a line is separated by space. So if any of my assumption is wrong, your code may not pass the tests, but don’t panic, just let me know what results are you getting and I’ll update the code as needed.

Comments are included, go through it, learn how things work and let me know if you have any doubts or if you need anything to change. If you are satisfied with the solution, please rate the answer. If not, PLEASE let me know before you rate, I’ll help you fix whatever issues. Thanks

// CountByAnything.java

import java.util.Scanner;

public class CountByAnything {

      public static void main(String[] args) {

            // defining a Scanner to read input

            Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);

            // reading an integer, setting as START value.

            final int START = sc.nextInt();

            // using the same STOP value as before since not specified otherwise.

            final int STOP = 500;

            // using 10 as numbers per line

            final int NUMBER_PER_LINE = 10;

            // looping from START to STOP, incrementing by START at a time

            for (int i = START; i <= STOP; i += START) {

                  // displaying i followed by a space

                  System.out.print(i + " ");

                  // if i%(NUMBER_PER_LINE * START) is 0, it means we have printed

                  // NUMBER_PER_LINE values in this line, so printing a line break.

                  if (i % (NUMBER_PER_LINE * START) == 0) {

                        System.out.println();

                  }

            }

      }
