Hi again guys... This is regarding the same topic from before... I'm trying to figure out a program that will output any name into a diamond like formation. If you look at the code you can see what I'm basically trying to get at, however there are a few minor mistakes that I could use some help on... [/code] %This program will accept any user name (min 3 char, max 12), then output a cool design fully centred using there name. var name : string get name locate (13 - length (name), 41 - length (name) div 2) put name locate (11 + length (name), 41 - length (name) div 2) put name for y : 1 .. length (name) locate (12 - length (name) + y, 40 - length (name) div 2 - y) put name (y) .. locate (12 + length (name) - y, 40 - length (name) div 2 - y) put name (y) .. locate (13 - y, 38 + length (name) - y) put name (y) .. locate (9 + y, 38 + length (name) - y) put name (y) .. end for |
