What do you mean display a number in a straight line? Also what output method are you using? System.out, hsa.Console or something else? |

I'm going to assume you're using Java, because nobody should use RTP over that. As long as you never print a newline character, your input will continue on the same line. System.out.print() will print text without automatically appending a newline character on the end (as opposed to the println method, which does append the newline character.) When you want to go to a new line, just print a newline (\n) character.

You can use System.out.print() instead of System.out.println(). |

System.out.print() does the job quite nicely. If you were to type: System.out.print("This "); System.out.println("is a test."); The output would be This is a test. |
