Hi Matrina,

Check this code.

PARAMETERS: P_STAR TYPE I.

DATA V_COUNT TYPE I.

DATA V_FLAG.

START-OF-SELECTION.

V_COUNT = P_STAR MOD 2.

IF V_COUNT = 0.

V_COUNT = 2.

ELSE.

V_COUNT = 1.

ENDIF.

DO P_STAR TIMES.

DO V_COUNT TIMES.

WRITE: '*'.

ENDDO.

SKIP.

IF V_COUNT = P_STAR.

V_FLAG = 'X'.

ENDIF.

IF V_FLAG IS INITIAL.

V_COUNT = V_COUNT + 2.

ENDIF.

IF V_FLAG IS NOT INITIAL.

V_COUNT = V_COUNT - 2.

ENDIF.

ENDDO.

<b>Note:</b> Dont post duplicate threads. Plz close the other duplicate threads by solved problem.

Dear Vinaykumar,

Hi Martina,

ABAP Development is the forum category which will have subcategories like data dictionary, form printing, abap objects etc. Please put your question in the write subcategory rather putting the same question in more than one subcategories to get the answers. People who will watch the ABAP Development category as a whole can see your questions as duplicates in sub categories.

I am able to get the output correctly. Will you check once with my code again??

It will work for both even and odd numbers too.

Thanks,

Vinay
