I wrote this code for school and had a question about it.

	for(int j=0; j<x-2; j++)

		{

		    System.out.print("*");

		     

		     for(int k=0; k < x-2; k++)

		     {

		         System.out.print(" ");

		        

		     }

		  System .out.print("*"); 

		  System.out.println();

	    }

Why does the first loop make a column and the second loop makes a row. I just do not understand nested loops.

Thanks
