Word advancing in letters each new line
-6
- I want the user to type in a string.
- The console output should have string.length lines (plus the line where the user inputs the string).
- The first line should output the first symbol of the string (string.length) times.
- The second line should output the first symbol of the string and then repeat the second symbol (string.length - 1) times, and so on.
Here is an example of what I want the console output the be with the word "example".
What will your word be?: example
eeeeeee
exxxxxx
exaaaaa
exammmm
examppp
exampll
example
I have no idea where to start with this one. I'd appreciate any help.
Edit
Sorry for being so unclear and not providing any code. This is what I have so far.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class muster{
public static void main(String s){
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("What will your string be?");
String word=sc.next();
for(int i=0;i<word.length();i++)
System.out.println(word.substring(0,i+1));
}
}
This will read the users input and print the word starting from the first letter with a new letter in each new line. What I still need is that the code repeats the letters for as long as the rest of word.length is.

Start by making some code attempt, then narrow down the question to where things are still unclear. At SO, you cannot expect to simply be given a solution. We're happy to answer questions but need to see some research effort/attempt.

Break the problem down into small steps -- get user input, get length of input, create loop to print "x" lines, consider using an inner loop to help figure out what letters to print on each line.... and then try to solve each small step, one at a time.

No idea where to start? How about writing a class with amainmethod? If you’ve been given this assignment, surely you know how to write the code for the first bullet point, at least. Are you familiar with loops? Are you familiar with thesubstringmethod of String? Unless you provide your code attempt, we can’t write an answer that addresses your knowledge level.

You got very close. You already had the idea to print the substring from 0 to i. Then you just need an inner loop that starts at i+1 and loops until word.length and print out the char at i. Also you need to use System.out.print() so that they will be on the same line:
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("What will your string be?");
String word=sc.next();
for(int i=0;i<word.length();i++) {
System.out.print(word.substring(0,i+1));
for(int j = i+1; j < word.length(); j++) {
System.out.print(word.charAt(i));
}
System.out.println();
}
Output:
What will your string be?
