Pattern 1 | Java

Problem Statement:

Write a program to draw the following pattern of NxN(where N is the input):

* * * * *

* * * * *

* * * * *

* * * * *

* * * * *

(here, N=5)

THE CODE


Output:


Here, the input is 8

Simplification:
In the above problem, two for loops are used:
1. The first for loop is having i as counter variable with initial value of 1 and ending value of 10 with an updation statement i++.
2. The second for loop is having j as counter variable with initial value of 1 and ending value of 10 with an updation statement j++.

The second for loop is used to print * in the respective column (the value of j represents the column number). It is having a print statement System.out.println("* ") to print * in each column(for convenience, I've added a space for better visibility of columns in the output).

The first for loop is used to define rows( the value of i represents the row number). It is having a print statement System.out.print() to change rows each time the second for loop completes.

Note:
System.out.println() is used to print on the next line whereas System.out.print() is used to print on the same line.

Exploring Uninformed Search in Artificial Intelligence: Basics and Applications

  In artificial intelligence (AI), search algorithms are essential for solving a variety of problems, from navigating a maze to scheduling tasks. Uninformed search, also known as blind search, is a fundamental category of search techniques where the algorithm has no additional information about the states beyond what is provided in the problem definition to guide the search. This page delves into the basics of uninformed search algorithms, their types, and their applications in AI. Understanding Uninformed Search Uninformed search algorithms explore the search space without any guidance on which paths might lead to the goal more efficiently. They rely solely on the information available from the initial problem setup, such as the start state, goal state, and possible actions. This approach contrasts with informed search algorithms, which utilize heuristics to make more educated guesses about the best path to take. Types of Uninformed Search Algorithms   Several uninformed se...

Print a Linked List in Reverse Order | Linked List | Java | MyCodingNetwork

  Print a Linked List in Reverse Order After mastering the four standard operations on a Linked List - Creation, Traversal, Insertion, and Deletion - we will now proceed to the next topic: ' Printing a Linked List in Reverse Order '. It serves as a continuation of our previous discussions. We will build upon the topics and ideas that we have previously explored to further our understanding about Linked List. We 'll be using recursive approach for the implementation. For this a separate recursive function would be needed. Concept of stack is also implemented for print statement. Let's discuss the algorithm for the same: Algorithm: Create a function printReverse() , which takes 'head ' of the Linked List as the parameter. Take a temporary node ' cur ' and assign it with the head of the list. Create a base case which checks if cur==null . If base case is TRUE, then function would return . If base case is FALSE, then the statements following that base case ...
