Problem 1
I heart you
Just in time for Valentine's Day 2008, we require an ASCII heart generator. Based on Tony's horrible "artwork" below:
~.~ ` ` \./
The input file DATA1.txt will contain 5 lines, integers 0 <= N <= 5
The output file OUT1.txt will contain 5 sets of 3 lines, 15 in total. Each set will have a specified number of hearts generated. Refer to the sample output for examples.
Note: each heart is made up of 3 lines, 5 characters each. Don't forget to have all the spaces at the end.
Sample Input (only three shown):
1 0 3
Sample Output (only three sets shown):
~.~ ` ` \./ ~.~ ~.~ ~.~ ` `` `` ` \./ \./ \./
