Hello,
Hello,
I bought a book about Programming Perl, there is a
exercise :
1) Enter with a number and print asterisks (1..30)
ex: if you type six have go to screen:
******
See the below code :
if (($num1 >= 1 && $num1 <= 30)
{
for (my $i=1 ; $i < 30 ; $i++)
{
while ($num1 == $i)
{
print "*";
}
}
}
This script is in loop. I don't understand, therefore
the line command while, could be stop after bow.
What's wrong ?
You don't need any loops in there:
if ( $num1 >= 1 && $num1 <= 30 )
{
print '*' x $num1;
}
