[JAVA] Drawing

[M4nB3arP1g]

I am trying to draw a brick wall in java using loops and I am having problems with my columns loop. I can get it to draw a row but not to go down to the next row.

Edit: ok I got columns to work but now I can't figure out how to stagger the columns like a real brick wall.

I want mine to look like this: http://www.somethingyoushouldread.com/imag...ll_tileable.jpg

but mine is just straight columns.

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class BrickDriver
{
	//---------------------------------------
	// Creates the main frame of the program
	//---------------------------------------
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		int x, y; // x and y dimensions of frame

		Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

		System.out.print ("Enter the x and y dimensions: ");
		x = scan.nextInt();
		y = scan.nextInt();

		JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Brick Wall");
		frame.setDefaultCloseOperation (JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

		frame.getContentPane().add (new BrickPanel(x, y));

		frame.pack ();
		frame.setVisible (true);
	}
}

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;

public class BrickPanel extends JPanel
{
	private final int LENGTH_BRICK = 50; // max length of a brick
	private final int WIDTH_BRICK = 20; // max width of a brick

	private int length, width; // length and width of the frame

	//---------------------------
	// Sets up the drawing panel
	//---------------------------
	public BrickPanel (int x, int y)
	{
		length = x; // assigning the inputed length
		width = y;  // assigning the inputed width

		setPreferredSize (new Dimension (length, width));
		setBackground (Color.darkGray);
	}	

	//------------------------------------------------------
	// draws the bricks across the frame and down the frame
	//------------------------------------------------------
	public void paintComponent (Graphics page)
	{
		super.paintComponent(page);

		int x, y; // x and y of the brick

		x = 0; // initial x of the first brick
		y = 0; // initial y of the first brick

		for (int countY = 0; countY <= width; countY++) // draws the columns
		{
			for	(int countX = 0; countX <= length; countX++) // draws the rows
			{
				page.setColor (Color.red);
				page.fillRect (x, y, LENGTH_BRICK, WIDTH_BRICK);
				x = x + 52;
			}
			x = 0;
			y = y + 22;
		}	
	}
}

If the row index is even, paint the rectangle a half-brick length left. You may have to draw an additional brick at the end of the row to complete it.

I got it thanks for the help. :)
