Output JBL in Block Letters with C Programming

In summary, to output your initials in block letters, you will need to use the newline character '\n' to start a new line in your printf statements. Additionally, using the tab character '\t' can help with aligning your output. It is also possible to use only one printf statement, but it may be more difficult to format correctly.

All i have to do is write a program that will output my initials (JBL) in block letters.

This is what i have done:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
printf("	 JJJJJJ  BBBBBBBB  LLL");
printf("	   JJ     BB    BB    LLL");
printf("	   JJ    BBBBBBB    LLL");
printf("	   JJ    BB    BB     LLL");
printf("      JJ JJ     BB    BB    LLLLLLLL");
printf("	JJJJJ    BBBBBBBB  LLLLLLLL");
}

Now this is wrong of course. When i execute, it will print the top line with the correct number of spaces, but after the first LLL it just goes wack. I assume it is because i am not telling it when to start a new line, right? If so, how do i do that? Also, could i just use 1 printf statement instead of 6?
Thanks

The newline character '\n' should be added inside the "" of the printf string:

printf(" This is a line of text.\n");

ahh perfect. Thank you. another problem i was having was i didn't know tab would act as a single space, so it was printing all messed up. Got it now. Thanks SteamKing
