How to remove a blank line in python

This is my code for a times table:

Y=int(input(""))
X=int(input(""))

for i in range(1,Y+1):
    print("")
    for j in range(1,X+1):
        print("{:>4}".format(str(i*j)),end="")

This is the output when X=3 and Y=2:


   1   2
   2   4
   3   6

The output is correct but there is an extra spacing at the top that i need to get rid of.

   1   2
   2   4
   3   6

This is what i would like to get. Can anyone please help with this problem.

You need to move the empty print at the end, and no need of "" into it, also no need to cast as str

for i in range(1,Y+1):
    for j in range(1,X+1):
        print("{:>4}".format(i*j),end="")
    print()

You can also concat the inner loop, like

for i in range(1,Y+1):
    val = ""
    for j in range(1,X+1):
         val+= "{:>4}".format(i*j)
    print(val)

Or shorter

for i in range(1, Y + 1):
    print("".join(map(lambda j: "{:>4}".format(i * j), range(1, X + 1))))

Move the print("") line to the bottom, but keep the same indentation:

y = int(input("y: "))
x = int(input("x: "))

for i in range(1, y+1):
    for j in range(1, x+1):
        print("{:>4}".format(i*j), end="")
    print()

Try this below:

Y = int(input(""))
X = int(input(""))
for i in range(1, Y + 1):
    if i > 1:
        print()
    for j in range(1, X + 1):
        print("{:>4}".format(str(i * j)), end="")

OR

    Y = int(input(""))
    X = int(input(""))
    for i in range(1, Y + 1):
        for j in range(1, X + 1):
            print("{:>4}".format(str(i * j)), end="")
        print()
