    because you need to print line by line, you can't write one column then go back and fill in the next. you need to write a complete row at a time. so have an outer loop for rows. then an inner loop for columns where you use the row number to tell you how many start to print for the current row.

    You could repost your question WITHOUT all the extra formatting you seem to have added.

    The only tags you need are [code][/code], and those go not surprisingly around actual code.
    The rest should just be pure text as you would type it (or copy and pasted from a text editor).
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
