Lesson 22 Activity 2

/*
 * Lesson 22 Coding Activity 2
 * Write the code to take a String and print it diagonally.

  Sample run:

  Enter a string:
  bought
  b
      o
          u
              g
                  h
                      t
  Use a tab character for every four spaces in the sample.

  Hint: You may need more than one loop.
