Introduction to Computing (CS 101) Lab Manual

Indent your program so that statements inside a block can be distinguished from another block

Problems / Assignments
Problem 1: Write a program that inputs a number from Estimated completion time (mins):20
the user and outputs the table of first 10 multiples for that
number
A sample input and output is given below:
3
3x1=3
3x2=6
3x3=9
3 x 4 = 12
3 x 5 = 15
3 x 6 = 18
3 x 7 = 21
3 x 8 = 24
3 x 9 = 27
3 x 10 = 30
Problem 2: Output the digits that make up a number

(input)
(your programs output)

Estimated completion time (mins):30

Input a number from the user and output its digits, one digit per line. For example, if the user inputs
7854, then your program should output:
The digits of 7854 are:
7
8
5
4

Problem 3:Input numbers from the user until a negative Estimated completion time (mins):40
number is entered and output the average of the all the
numbers entered
A sample input and output is given below:
Enter numbers:
5
7
8
9

The average of the numbers is 5.666667
Problem 4: Output a diamond shape
Estimated completion time (mins):40
Input the total number of lines of the diamond shape from the user and output the diamond shape. For
example if the user inputs 5, then your program should print:
