Chapter 3, Problem 34STE

Explanation of Solution

Given: The lines of Java code:

int n, m;

for (n = 1; n <= 10; n++)

for (m = 10; m >= 1; m--)

System.out.println(n + " times " + m+ " = " + n*m);

To find: The output of the lines of code in Java language and comment on the code:

int n, m;

for (n = 1; n <= 10; n++)

for (m = 10; m >= 1; m--)

System.out.println(n + " times " + m+ " = " + n*m);

Solution:

In this code:

Two variables, m and n, are declared.

In the outer for loop, the variable n will increment from 1 to 10 in ascending order and variable m in the inner for loop will decrement from 10 to 1.

In the outer loop, the value of n iterates from 1 and gets incremented by 1 if n<=10.

Then, it moves to the inner loop in which the value of m iterates from 10 and gets decremented by 1 till m>=1.

For every value of n, the inner loop repeats itself till the condition of m>=1 is satisfied and it executes the print statement for every value of m...
