#include<iostream>

	int row;

	for(row=1; row<=5; row++)
	{cout<<"#";
	cout<<'/n';
	for(row=1; row<=4; row++)
	cout<<"#";
	cout<<'/n';
	for(row=1; row<=3; row++)
	cout<<"#";
	cout<<'/n';
	for(row=1; row<=2; row++)

You will need nested for loops:

for(over each of the rows)
{  
   for(over each of the columns)
   {

Find a relationship between the columns and the rows. Take another crack at it, and post back with your updated code.

yeah i don't know...i just learned loops last week..and i bombed my assignment..got a big fat zero..so good luck!

After writing for and cout 5 times, you should have understood the need of nested loop.

If you want to loop over something, the syntax is as following:

int rowVector[5]; // Initializing

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
 rowVector[i] = i;
 cout << rowVector[i]; 
}

Initializing an array with both rows and columns is done as following:

arrar[number_of_rows][number_of_columns]

Hope I didn't give you too much help there.
