Why does this work??

import java.util.Scanner; public class multiplication { public static void main(String[]args){ Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Enter a number"); int number1 = in.nextInt(); for (int i=0; i<10; i++){ System.out.println(number1+ "x" + (i+1) + "="+(number1 * (i+1))); in.close(); } } } can someone explain why it prints up to * 10 instead of up to * 9? and can someone break this down (in simple english for dummies)

Let me then tell you one thing. I know c++,HTML,css only. But I know all them by heart. Others are similar And I always try to work out questions by some common logic. You are learning java go for it you can after that do other languages easily only a change of syntax is major difference. By the way I really don't know java(I know I have completed the course) And I worked this one out by c++ logic.

see in the code in loop it is (i+1) so it starts from 0+1=1//I=0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9//i=8 10//i=9

first one closes (I+1) second one closes (number 1*(I+1)) third one closes system.out.printin.

yes only logic are common across all languages. But c++ and java are even more closer. they have same way of looping
