yes exactly. i will not let me post what i have here but its kind of like this.

#include iostream

int main() {
a
Std::cout <<“DDDD \n”;
Std::cout <<“D D \n”;
Std::cout <<“D D \n”;
Std::cout <<“D D \n”;
Std::cout <<“D D \n”;
Std::cout <<“D D \n”;
Std::cout <<“DDDD \n”;

return 0;
}

int main() {
// d
std::cout <<“DDDD \n”;
std::cout <<“D   D \n”;
std::cout <<“D   D \n”;
std::cout <<“D   D \n”;
std::cout <<“D   D \n”;
std::cout <<“D   D \n”;
std::cout <<“DDDD \n”;

return 0;
}

TBH, I’m not C++ savvy. Going to tag in another member: @midlindner is more familiar/adept at this language.

no problem thanks for trying to help.

cout does not have a line break. There’s an std::endl but that flushes the stream so it has more overhead than \n

std::cout should be lower case, you wrote Std::cout
