(bright music) - [Instructor] For this challenge, use Exercise File 03-09-challenge1.c as a base where the user is prompted for integer input. Your task is to write a loop that draws a line of hyphen characters. User input sets the line length. Each time the loop repeats, output a single hyphen character based on the value input. For example, if the user types in 50, the program generates 50 hyphens a line across the text screen. Use the putchar() function to output the hyphen character. You are to write two solutions to this challenge. The first solution uses a for loop. The second solution performs the same task, but with a while loop. This challenge should take about 15 minutes to complete.
