Hi Barbara,

Try this:

i=1
while i<=3:
   j=1
   while j<=i:
      print i*j,
      j=j+1 #What version of Python are you using? If you're using 2.0 or
later you can use j+=1 to have the same effect.
   print '' #This line is required to print a newline. Because you have the
comma at the end of "print i*j," it just keeps going...
   i=i+1

HTH,
Andy
