Ruby Challenge 2
digits = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
# Challenge 1: use the <digits> array to display the
# numbers 1 - 100 in a 10x10 block. Try to use only
# one *puts* statement
# terminal output:
#
# 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
# 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
# 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
# 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40
# 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
# 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
# 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70
# 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80
# 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90
# 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100
# Challenge 2: use any strategy to generate a large
# X in terminal. The large x can be any size but
# can only have one character at the intersection point
#
# sample terminal output:
# x x
# x x
# x x
# x x
# x x
# x
# x x
# x x
# x x
# x x
# x x
#
# SOLUTION 1:
#
# digits.count.times do |row|
# line = ""
# digits.each do |column|
# number = 10*row + column + 1
# line << "#{number} "
# end
# puts line
# end
# SOLUTION 2:
#
# count = 11
# count.times do |row|
# line = ""
# count.times do |column|
# if column == row || column == (count - row - 1)
# line << " x"
# else
# line << " "
# end
# end
# puts line
# end
