CIS105 Fall 2003 Lab09

Lab09 consists of three programs

1. For Lab09a, write a function called printStarSquare that displays a square of stars at the left margin of the screen. The function should have one parameter, which is the size of the square. For example, if the number passed into the function is 5, the square printed should look like this:

   *****
   *****
   *****
   *****
   *****
   

   Include a main function in your file to test your function. The main should allow the user to enter a number, and then call your function with that number.

2. For Lab09b, write a function called printSquare that works just like printStarSquare, except that this time, you have two parameters. One of the parameters will be a char variable that is the character you want to use to build the square.

   For example, if you call the function with

   printSquare(4, 'H')

   then the output would be:

   HHHH
   HHHH
   HHHH
   HHHH
   

   On the other hand, if you call the function with

   printSquare(3, 'I')

   then the output would be:

   III
   III
   III
   

3. For Lab09c, write a function called printBox that works just like printSquare, except that this time, the character is printed only on the outline of the square. Your main should allow you to input a value for the size of the box, and the character to use to draw the box. For example:

   printBox(4, 'H')

   should produce:

   HHHH
   H  H
   H  H
   HHHH
   

   and

   printSquare(3, 'I')

   should produce:

   III
   I I
