Times tables
A times tables reference sheet.
The 1-12 times tables are something you learn when you are young. This program outputs a handy reference sheet for a times table.
Make
Write a program to output the times table between one and twelve for a number.
Use this boilerplate code as a starting point:
Success Criteria
Remember to add a comment before a subprogram, selection or iteration statement to explain its purpose.
Complete the subprogram called `times_table` that:
- Takes a parameter `x` which is the times table to be output.
- Outputs the times table of x between 1 and 12.
Complete the `main program` so that:
- The user can input the times table they want to output.
- It calls the `times_table` subprogram.
Typical inputs and outputs from the program would be:
Which table do you want to output? 1-12 :3
1 x 3 = 3
2 x 3 = 6
3 x 3 = 9
4 x 3 = 12
5 x 3 = 15
6 x 3 = 18
7 x 3 = 21
8 x 3 = 24
9 x 3 = 27
10 x 3 = 30
11 x 3 = 33
12 x 3 = 36

Evaluate
Run the unit tests below to check that your program has met the success criteria.
Which table do you want to output? 1-12 :6
1 x 6 = 6
2 x 6 = 12
3 x 6 = 18
4 x 6 = 24
5 x 6 = 30
6 x 6 = 36
7 x 6 = 42
8 x 6 = 48
9 x 6 = 54
10 x 6 = 60
11 x 6 = 66
12 x 6 = 72
Which table do you want to output? 1-12 :12
1 x 12 = 12
2 x 12 = 24
3 x 12 = 36
4 x 12 = 48
5 x 12 = 60
6 x 12 = 72
7 x 12 = 84
8 x 12 = 96
9 x 12 = 108
10 x 12 = 120
11 x 12 = 132
12 x 12 = 144
Check that you have:
- Used comments within the code to describe the purpose of subprograms, conditions and iterations.
- Used meaningful identifier names. That means the names of subprograms and variables indicate what they are for.
