Hi,
I'm new to Mathematica.
I have the following bit of graphics:
   Graphics[{
  Line[{{0, 10}, {1, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 9}, {2, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 8}, {3, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 7}, {4, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 6}, {5, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 5}, {6, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 4}, {7, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 3}, {8, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 2}, {9, 0}}],
  Line[{{0, 1}, {10, 0}}],
  }]
I want to simplify it to do some sort of iteration to compute the end points
of the lines. I can do this easily in a variety of procedural languages but
I haven't yet grokked how Mathematica would do this.
Would someone please show me the short way, I imagine using Table somehow?
Thanks.
Sol
