Well now let's analyze your 'solution' shall we.

Agreed the 'specification' is a little lacking but as we are unable to 
go back to the client at this time we need to make some assumptions.

Assumption 1. It's 'homework'

OK, now what do you imagine the learning objectives are?

Well it certainly looks 'loopy' so

Assumption 2. It's intended to get the student to learn about loop 
control variables, possibly to control nested loops.

The output is numeric so

Assumption 3. It's intended to exercise some understanding of 
manipulation of numeric variables ...

Well that's about it for the assumptions, now how does your solution 
meet the objectives?

... ah yes, String concatenation in a for loop

1/10 for effort

Nicely done. Why is that Java groups and IRC channels in particular are
so full of self inflated pompous idiots who seem to be there only to
belittle others and demonstrate their inate stupidity and narrow
mindedness?

A question I have often asked myself ... I've yet to find the definitive 
answer.

I don't know how long you've been involved in software development but 
this attitude of smug self satisfied pomposity pervades the software 
industry like a nasty smell.

This group is particularly well endowed with smart arses. It's 
interesting to note that certain individuals who post here and in other 
groups only exhibit the worst of their arrogance in c.l.j.p. They would 
be given short shrift if they tried any of their nonsense in other 
groups. They are basically bullies and we know that the only way to deal 
with a bully is to stand up to them as they are also mostly cowards.

Ho hum, it all adds to the rich tapestry of life I suppose

I gave up on IRC a long time ago, if you want to discuss Java stuff go 
ahead, ignore the twats, there are helpful people here it's just that 
they sometimes get drowned out by the noise.

If you find your answer please let me know.

I cannot confirm that for the part of the software industry I am living 
in.  But I am at least as subjective as you are.

Especially in the "newer" areas I find : a lot of new bucks with little
experience and a too large cowboy hat. Java, CSS, HTML type groups are
far and away the worst.

Correct. I couldn't agree more. Frankly, if someone finds IRC to get a
help with his homework then good luck to them :maybe they couldnt afford
the text book. And a patiently explained answer here could help them a
lot. What next "fuck off Im not helping you because you're earning money
from your job and should work it out for yourself"?

True. I like IRC : the problem is that the minority of bullies and
clueless sheriffs invariably have OP status and ban you for disagreeing
with them.

It's perfectly all right to ask for _help_ with one's homework here -- 
just explain the assignment, mention that it's homework, say what you've
tried and explain what you're having a problem with. It will usually be
better to ask your professor or teaching assistants instead though, as
they'll know what has been covered in the class so far and what techniques
and considerations are outside the scope of the class and will only 
serve to confuse the student if mentioned.

Asking strangers on the Internet to _do_ your homework for you on the other 
hand, is another matter. For several reasons -- not least that doing so
_will not help the person asking in the long run_ -- that is much less
likely to garner a positive response.

One problem I see in programming communities is a ridiculous attitude in
'help seekers'. Nobody would ever join a woodworking group and ask if
someone could make a bird house and mail it to them, for free, and then
complain when it's not the right colour. Yet when it comes to programming,
it seems like the vast majority of newbies expect to get exactly that.

Another aspect is that as programmers, we have come to learn that precision
good, vagueness bad. Hence questions like the OP are immediately and
emotionally seen as "the enemy".

You and Lipska (not his real name) are in the best position to answer that question.

By the way, it's spelled "innate". And "narrow-mindedness" has a hyphen. As should 
"self-inflated".

Now go back to your belittlement of others already in progress.

"not his real name" ... oh very funny Bloch, your insight is rightly

This from the master of belittlement. Now I know you are a Troll, as in 
the true meaning of the word.

Funny?  Actually Lew has let his normally high standards slip a bit with 
this one as he probably has no actual proof that "Lipska" is not your real 
name.  For mine, I am willing to entertain the possibility that although you 
were born with a more mundane name, maybe at your official Newsgroup Pest of 
the Year Award 2013 ceremony you used official means to change your name to 
something to give you a more legendary vibe.

OK, given that "the true meaning of the word" is in fact "Any of a race of 
supernatural beings, sometimes conceived as giants and sometimes as dwarfs, 
inhabiting caves or subterranean dwellings" I think Lew will appreciate that 
recognition.

Newsgroup Pest of the Year Award 2013 ... excellent, I can't say I know 
that one but it sounds like fun. You are obviously cognizant of this 
particular smug fest.

Were you a past winner?

Fed up that your continued efforts to excel in this arena have gone 
unnoticed?

Never mind, there's always this year :-)

Yes ... Internet Troll

Apologies,  I forgot that I was addressing pedants

BTW 'Qu0ll' ... now that *would* look good engraved on the IPOTY trophy 
wouldn't it?

Nope, tried hard but just not good enough at it.  Not when I have Internet 
Trolls (for clarity) like you to win year after year.

Do you responses perhaps disprove your notion of "unnoticed"?

> Never mind, there's always this year :-)

True, but based on your achievements so far, I doubt anyone could catch up 
with you again this year...

> Apologies,  I forgot that I was addressing pedants

Really?  You forgot so quickly?  Wasn't that one of the things you have been 
complaining about for eons?

True again.  It would look good engraved anywhere.  BTW, I actually *was* a 
past winner of the Incredible Person of the Year in 2006.

Fantastic ... in what reality?

My brother is an excellent carpenter, would you like him to come around 
and widen the doors for you so you can get your massive head through 
them? It must be tough living in one room.

Interesting and also revealing question.  The fact that you are promoting 
the existence of multiple realities strengthens my suspicion that you are 
often living in an alternate one.

No, but thanks for the offer.  Given that the brain accounts for over 95% of 
the volume of the head/cranium, I'll take that as a compliment.

What? you don't think there are multiple realities?
The reality that exists in what you would like me to believe is your 
mind is obviously different to the actual reality that most of the rest 
of us experience day to day.

Correct.  But that doesn't prove the existence of multiple realities.

Interesting but not sure about its relevance to the debate.  Nevertheless, 
if your suggestion is that my other natural assets could compensate if my 
brain were ever to become obsolete then thanks again.

Hmm, perhaps it is, but that is an assumption. Notice the "Ass" and "U" 
in that word?

So you're going to throw in modules arithmetic, number theory, multiple 
variables, and avoid for-loops.

Ultimate learning objective: Do things the simplest possible way.

Hint: Don't get bogged down on what it "looks like", but what it 
actually is.

Even if you dislike the smartass answers, you shouldn't be answering 
people's homework questions for them.
