help me for this nested for loop with users input

i dont know how to put the user's input with this..when i run this it automatically runs without asking how many asterisk..im new in java :(

int x,y;
for(x=5;x>=1;x--)
{
for(y=1;y<=1;y++)
{System.out.print("*");}
{System.out.println("");}
}
}
}
the output of this is

*****
****
***
**
*

i want the output is

Enter number:
(then it depends on the number in how many asterisk are there)

you could say what are your probs... (since like said indeed it's not the intention to just give the code, forgat that;.. :( )

and do try not to doublepost things...

Please don't spoonfeed code to people.
It's not what this forum is here for.
