1. Write 4 overloading static methods to construct a String that compose a diamond:
public static String diamond (); public static String diamond (int n); public static String diamond (int n, char flash); public static String diamond (int n, char flash, char blank); System.out.print( diamond() ) will output as left below:

System.out.print( diamond( 5 ) ) will output as right above.
System.out.print( diamond( 7, ’$’ ) ) will output as left below:

System.out.print( diamond( 6, ’@’, ’.’ ) ) will output as right above.

2. Write a static methods that remove all the tabs ( ) in a String and substitute a tab with needed blanks. public static String noTabs (String s, int tabPosition);

The Twelve Days of Christmas (12 Days of Christmas) – lyrics

On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me A partridge in a pear tree.

On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the ninth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!
