Hands On Java: Project 1

Objectives

1. Practice using the text editor and Java compiler.
2. Gain experience with sequential programming.
3. Practice using the I/O facilities.

Introduction

Using the program Mult.java as a model, solve one of the problems below (your instructor will tell you which one to do).

Projects

1.1. Write Flies.java -- a program that produces the following output:

                   like
            flies        an
