Edit: Figured it out, all is well.

Hi! I'm taking my first CS class and while I've got the hang of all the material so far, the nested for loops are giving me a bit of trouble. Well, quite frankly, they're pissing me off. :P I'm working on an assignment right now where I have to draw a rocket figure using for loops and I'm having problems with this one section of the figure. I get the feeling that there's a very obvious answer, but it just hasn't clicked. I was hoping someone might be kind enough to help get me back on track! Here's what I've got:

public class Rocket
{
    public static void main (String[] args) {
        Example();
        drawLargeCone();
    }
       public static void Example() {
            System.out.println("    /@@\\");
            System.out.println("   //@@\\\\");
            System.out.println("  ///@@\\\\\\");
            System.out.println(" ////@@\\\\\\\\");
            System.out.println("/////@@\\\\\\\\\\");
            System.out.println();
        }

    public static void drawLargeCone() {
        for (int line=5; line>=1; line--)
            {
            for (int k=1; k<=(line-1); k++)
            {
                System.out.print(" ");     
            }
        
            for (int t=(5-(line-1)); t>=1; t--)
            {
                System.out.print("/");                
            }
            {
                System.out.println();
            }            
        }
            for (int i=1; i<=5; i++) {
            System.out.print("@@");
                for (int j=1; j<=i; j++) {
                    System.out.print("\\");
                }
            System.out.println();
        }
    }
}


The Example method is what it's supposed to look like, but I can't get the two parts to match up. I'm pretty sure it's because the left aligned half with the "@@" and backslash are not within the same loop, but I don't see an obvious way to link the two together because the first outer loop is a decrementing for loop.

So, if anyone has any useful tips for me, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!
