Courses Plus Student 16,751 PointsIn the printMenu method of the Programmers.java class, I'd like to print a menu showing off some famous programmers. Fol
mmm do not know what i did wrong
public class Programmers {
public void printMenu() {
String[] programmers = {
"Yukihiro Matsumoto",
"David Nolen",
"Grace Hopper",
"Linus Torvalds",
"You"
};
System.out.println("Choose a programmer:");
for(int i=0; i<programmers.length;i++){
System.out.printf(" %d. %s%n ",i+1,programmers[i]);
}
// TODO: Print out a menu by looping through the programmers array.
/*
The menu should be in the form of (each on a line of its own, starting with 1):
1. Yukihiro Matsumoto
2. David Nolen
...
*/

for(int i=0; i<programmers.length;i++){
System.out.printf("%d. %s%n",i+1,programmers[i]); //On this Line, remove space before %d and after %n
}
Take care and happy coding!
