JavaScript - Help On Nested Loop Character Box

After struggling with this for the past 2 days, I've decided it is time to seek out some help.

The program is a calculator to show the monthly payments required depending on if the terms are for 2, 3, 4, or 5 year financing. I have the following 4 variables that I need to be placed in the inner loop, but not sure how to do it.

pay24, pay36, pay48, pay60

The following loop creates a 4 row x 2 column table which I need it to do, but the inner loop needs to show the value of the 4 variables above.

Can someone assist me in this problem?

Code:

for ( var i=24; i<=60; i+=12 ) {
document.write("<tr>");
document.write("<td align=center>" + i + "</td>");
  
    for ( var j = 2; j <= 2; j++ ) {
        document.write("<td align=right>" + j + "</td>");
    }
    document.write("</tr>");
}

I am stuck on these problems and cannot figure them out! Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!



Code:

public int sumkj(int k, int j){
        // Complete the method using a for loop that will add the numbers from k to j, 
        //   where j is greater than k

Ok, I'm nearly pulling my hair out with this one. I have been looking at this code for two evenings now, and rewrote it 4 times already. It started out as jQuery code and now it's just concatenating strings together.

What I'm trying to do: Build a menu/outline using unordered lists from a multidimensional array.

What is happening: Inside the buildMenuHTML function, if I call buildMenuHTML, the for loop only happens once (i.e. only for 'i' having a value of '0'.) If I comment out the call to itself, it goes through the for loop all 3 times, but obviously the submenus are not created.

Here is the test object:
Code:

test = [
	{ 
	  "name" : "Menu 1", 
		"url" :  "menu1.html",
		"submenu" : [
		  {
				"name" : "menu 1 subitem 1",
				"url" :  "menu1subitem1.html"
			},
			{
				"name" : "menu 1 subitem 2",
				"url" :  "menu1subitem2.html"
			} ]
	},
	{ 
	  "name" : "Menu 2",
	  "url" :  "menu2.html", 
		"submenu" : [ 
		  { 
			  "name" : "menu 2subitem 1", 
			  "url" :  "menu2subitem1.html"
			},
		  { 
			  "name" : "menu 2subitem 1",
			  "url" :  "menu2subitem1.html"
		  } ]
	},
	{ 
	  "name" : "Menu 3",
	  "url" :  "menu3.html", 
		"submenu" : [ 
		  { 
			  "name" : "menu 3 subitem 1", 
			  "url" :  "menu3subitem1.html"
			},
		  { 
			  "name" : "menu 3 subitem 1",
			  "url" :  "menu3subitem1.html"
		  } ]
	}
];

Here is the recursive function:
Code:

function buildMenuHTML(menuData,level) {
	var ul;
	if (level == 1) {
		ul = "<ul id='menu'>";
	} else {
		ul = "<ul class='level" + level + "'>";
	}

	for (i = 0; i < menuData.length; i++) {
		menuItemData = menuData[i];
		
		ul += "<li>";
		ul += "<a href='" + menuItemData.url + "'>" + menuItemData.name + "</a>";
		
		if (typeof menuItemData.submenu != 'undefined') {
			ul += buildMenuHTML(menuItemData.submenu,level + 1);
		}
		
		ul += "</li>";
	}
	
	ul += "</ul>";
	return ul;
}

Here is how the function is called initially:
Code:

buildMenuHTML(test,1);

This is it's return value (with indentation added for readability):
Code:

<ul id='menu'>
  <li><a href='menu1.html'>Menu 1</a>
    <ul class='level2'>
      <li><a href='menu1subitem1.html'>menu 1 subitem 1</a></li>
      <li><a href='menu1subitem2.html'>menu 1 subitem 2</a></li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ul>

'Menu 2' and 'Menu 3' don't show up! I'm sure it's something small that I'm overlooking, but any help would be appreciated.

Hi all

I'm well aware that I can't post assignments here and expect an answer, however, I have been staring at this code for so long. I feel I am close to the solution (to get the correct output to the browser) but I just cannot get it to count how many moves it takes. I don't want an answer, but a nudge in the right direction would be very grateful.
As you can see from the code and the output, it will attempt to write to the browser how many moves, but only '0'.

Code:

function rollDie()
{
	return Math.floor(Math.random() * 6) + 1;
}

/*
*searches for a number in a number array.
*
*function takes two arguments
*	the number to search for
*	the  number array to search
*function returns the array index at which the number was found, or -1 if not found.
*/
function findIndexOf(number, numberArray)
{
    var indexWhereFound = -1;
    for (var position = 0; position < numberArray.length; position = position + 1)
    {
        if (numberArray[position] == number)
        {
            indexWhereFound = position;
        }
    }
    return indexWhereFound;
}

//ARRAYS that represent the board -- you do not need to change these
//array of special squares
var specialSquaresArray = [1,7,25,32,39,46,65,68,71,77];
//array of corresponding squares the player ascends or descends to
var connectedSquaresArray = [20,9,29,13,51,41,79,73,35,58];

//VARIABLES used -- you do not need to change these
//the square the player is currently on
var playersPosition;
//play is initially at START
playersPosition = 0;

//what they score when they roll the die
var playersScore;

//the index of the player's position in the special squares array or -1
var indexOfNumber;

//MAIN PROGRAM

//TODO add code here for parts (iii), (iv)(b), (v), and (vi)
// start of question(iii)
playersScore = rollDie();
	document.write(' Sco  ' + playersScore);
playersPosition = playersScore + playersPosition;
	document.write(', Squa  ' + playersPosition);

indexOfNumber = findIndexOf(playersPosition, specialSquaresArray);

if (indexOfNumber != -1)
{
	document.write(', Ladder to Squa  ' + connectedSquaresArray[indexOfNumber]);
	playersPosition = connectedSquaresArray[indexOfNumber];
	indexOfNumber = -1;
}
document.write('<BR>')
// end of question(iii) 

// start of question(iv)(b) 
while(playersPosition<=80)


{
playersScore = rollDie()
	document.write(' Sco  ' + playersScore)
playersPosition = playersPosition + playersScore
	document.write(', Squa  ' + playersPosition)
indexOfNumber = findIndexOf(playersPosition, specialSquaresArray)


if(indexOfNumber != -1)
{
	document.write(', Ladder to Squa  ' + connectedSquaresArray[indexOfNumber]);
	playersPosition = connectedSquaresArray[indexOfNumber];
}	
	document.write('<BR>');
}
var countMoves = 0;
while(countMoves <= 0)
{
	document.write('You took ' + countMoves + ' moves to get out');
	countMoves = countMoves + 1
}	

/*for (var countMoves = 0; countMoves < playersPosition; countMoves = countMoves + 1)
{
	countMoves = countMoves + playersPosition;
	document.write('You took ' + countMoves + ' moves to get out');

}*/




// end of question(iv)(b) 

// start of question (v) 
/*if (playersPosition >=80)
{
	document.write('The player is out');
}*/
// end of question (v)
