Remember, you can use document.write() to echo straight html too (think about using that to build a table? )

Look at the code I posted above. That's the most advanced thing he has taught us so far.

[SakSquash]

Yeah, but the stuff you guys are showing me is stuff we haven't learned, so...........arghhhhhhhhh I quit!

Do you know how to create a table in HTML? Let's start from there.

[SakSquash]

Yes.

[tabacco]

Well, if your textbook talks about loops, then hasn't he taught it to you in some way by assigning you that reading? All I'm talking about here is basic math and one loop.

"Using the programming techniques you learned in this chapter..."

What's the topic of the chapter?

Good. document.writeln() is a function that writes HTML to the page directly. So if you say
document.writeln("<H1> My name is SakSquash</H1>")

it is the same as like you are writing that in HTML.

Just pass the HTML of the table into the document.writeln function.
document.writeln("<TABLE>");
document.writeln("<TR>");
document.writeln("<TD>");
....
...
document.writeln("/TABLE");

Ok, that I get, but how do I apply a formula.

Read my long post!
Hint:

document.write(Math.pow(0,2));
document.write(Math.pow(0,3));

[SakSquash]

But we haven't learned math.pow.

You can use the loop as tabsie suggested. Or you can just explicitly calculate the square and cube for numbers 0->10.

var i;
var square;
var cube;
i = 0
square = i*i;
cube = i*i*i;
document.writeln(i);
i=1;
....

It's much preferable to use a loop though because you are basically repeating the same thing 11 times.

Okay then...

document.write(number * number);
document.write(number * number * number);

It's all just multiplication in the end.

I have a feeling just echoing the values wouldn't satisfy the assignment

So that's what I put in? Word for word?

If you're not going to try, why am I helping? I am not trying to tell you what to put word for word, I am trying to help you learn how to solve this yourself. Those two lines are *part* of the solution, but they are not even close to the whole thing.

Look... learning this is actually worthwhile. You can do some pretty amazing things with Javascript, but you've got to learn how it works or it's all just pointless.

Eh, whatever. I'm just going to do it without the formula.

Whatever. Look... please don't continue posting these questions on the forums if you're just looking for people to do your homework for you, alright? It's cheating, and I'm not going to have you using AG's forums for it.

[SakSquash]

Well, I don't see anything that says I HAVE to use a formula. I can just make a table!
