Quadrilateral Dimensions - Python Programming Exercise

In this exercise, you will develop a Python program to prompt the user for a number and then display a rectangle 3 columns wide and 5 rows tall using that digit. The program will use loops to print the digit in the specified pattern. This task helps you practice handling user input and using loops to control the flow of the program for repetitive tasks. By completing this exercise, you will enhance your understanding of Python syntax and become more proficient in using loops to create patterns. This is an important skill in Python programming, as loops allow you to automate repetitive tasks and work with user input dynamically. Mastering these fundamental concepts will prepare you for more advanced programming challenges in Python.

Quadrilateral Dimensions

 Objective

Develop a Python program to prompt the user for a number and then display a rectangle 3 columns wide and 5 rows tall using that digit. For example:

Enter a digit: 3
333
3 3
3 3
3 3
333

 Example Python Exercise

 Copy Python Code 
# Prompt the user to enter a digit
digit = input("Enter a digit: ")

# Display the rectangle using the entered digit
print(digit * 3)
print(digit + " " + digit)
print(digit + " " + digit)
print(digit + " " + digit)
print(digit * 3)

 Output

Enter a digit: 3
333
3 3
3 3
3 3
333
