UndyingJellyfish :
I want to create a matrix of size N by N where N is a constant value defined globally, for now I just want to create a matrix where N=6. Where I fall short is I want to make it diagonally, like so:
0 1 2 3 4 5
1 0 1 2 3 4
2 1 0 1 2 3
3 2 1 0 1 2
4 3 2 1 0 1
5 4 3 2 1 0
Currently I have this method:
public static void drawMatrix(){
for (int line = 0; line < N; line++){
for (int j = 0; j < N; j++){
System.out.print(j + " ");
}
System.out.println();
}
}
Unfortunately it's only able to print 0 1 2 3 4 5 in every line, so I suppose I need another nested for-loop, however I'm not sure how to set it up.
dasblinkenlight :
j
is the column number, so it will be the same for all rows. What you need to do is to add or subtract j
from the line number, depending on the line number, in order to make a "shift". Since the result could become negative, you will need to add N
and mod by N
:
if (j > line) {
System.out.print((N-line+j)%N + " ");
} else {
System.out.print((line-j+N)%N + " ");
}
You can also rewrite it without an if
using a conditional expression:
int sign = j > line ? -1 : 1;
System.out.print((N+sign*(line-j))%N + " ");
