Drawing a hollow rectangle.
We have discussed the solution in the class a couple of times. But some
of you still have problems with the printing part of the problem.
The input output has to be done in a similar fashion as discussed for
the in-class exercise.
The printing part
<length_counter>=1
While (<length_counter> <= <length>)
<width_counter>
= 1
if (<length_counter>
= 1 or <length_counter> = <length>)
While (<width_counter> <= <width>)
Display "*"
<width_counter> = <width_counter> + 1
End_While
else
While (<width_counter> <= <width>)
if (<width_counter> =1 or <width_counter> = <width>)
Display "*"
else
Display " "
(comment -- displays a space)
End_if
<width_counter> = <width_counter> + 1
End_While
End_if
<length_counter>
= <length_counter> +1
Skip a line
End_While
