Question

This zyLab activity is the traditional programming assignment, typically requiring a few hours over a week. The previous sections provide warm up exercises intended to help a student prepare for this programming assignment.

(1) Output this tree. (2 pts)

   *
  ***
 *****
*******
  ***

(2) Below the tree (with two blank lines), output this cat. (3 pts)

/\   /\
  o o
 =   =
  ---

Hint: A backslash \ in a string acts as an escape character, such as with a newline \n. So, to print an actual backslash, escape that backslash by prepending another backslash. Ex: The following prints a single backslash: System.out.println("\\");

Answer 1

public class AsciiArt {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
      
      System.out.println("   *");
      System.out.println("  ***");
      System.out.println(" *****");
      System.out.println("*******");
      System.out.println("  ***");
      
      System.out.println("\n");
      
      System.out.println("/\\   /\\");
      System.out.println("  o o");
      System.out.println(" =   =");
      System.out.println("  ---");
      
   }
