Kotlin Program: Generate a multiplication table of a number

Kotlin Control Flow: Exercise-8 with Solution

Write a Kotlin program to generate the multiplication table of a given number.

Sample Solution:

Kotlin Code:

fun main() {
    // Change this value to generate the multiplication
    //  table for a different number
    
    val number = 7

    println("Multiplication table of $number:")
    generateMultiplicationTable(number)
}

fun generateMultiplicationTable(number: Int) {
    for (i in 1..10) {
        val result = number * i
        println("$number * $i = $result")
    }
}

Sample Output:

Multiplication table of 7:
7 * 1 = 7
7 * 2 = 14
7 * 3 = 21
7 * 4 = 28
7 * 5 = 35
7 * 6 = 42
7 * 7 = 49
7 * 8 = 56
7 * 9 = 63
7 * 10 = 70

Explanation:

In the above exercise,

• In the main() function the "number" variable represents the number for which we want to generate the multiplication table. You can modify this value to generate the table for a different number.
• The "generateMultiplicationTable()" function takes the number as an argument and generates a multiplication table for that number.
• Inside the "generateMultiplicationTable()" function, we use a for loop to iterate from 1 to 7.
• For each iteration, we calculate the result of multiplying the number with the loop variable i and store it in the result variable.
• Finally we print the multiplication expression and the corresponding result using the println() function.
