I cannot seem to create this. Any help is appreciated.

what i've got so far:

public class HW4 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int count = 1, count2 = 1;
        String lineNum = "1";
        
        for(count = 1; count>=6; count++){
            for (count2 = 6; count2>=count; count2--){
                if (count2==count){
                    System.out.print(lineNum);
                }
                System.out.print(" ");
                
            }
            System.out.println();
        }
    }
}

i thought this would print the first line but it doesn't print anything.

        char[] arr = str.toCharArray();
        char[] newStr = new char[arr.length + padCount];
        int i;
        for (i = 0; i < padCount; i++) {
            newStr[i] = pad;
        }
        for (int n = 0; n < arr.length; n++) {
            newStr[i+n] = arr[n];
        }

        return new String(newStr);
    }
}

I did the first half right, didn't notice how you wanted second one. That should set you to the right path though.

ouch, i'll better show something:

public class Test
{
    public static String[] fill = {"", " ", "  ", "   ", "    ", "     ", "      ", "       ","        ","         "};
    public static final int NUMBER_COUNT = 7;
    
    public static void main(String[] args){
                
        for(int i = 0; i < NUMBER_COUNT; i++){
            System.out.print((fill[NUMBER_COUNT-i-1]));
            for(int j = i; j> 0; j--){
                System.out.print(j);
            }            
            System.out.println();
        }        
    }
}

Modify this to get the second one.
