TASK: Print a pyramid of stars.
COMMENT:
Problem 3: Print out a pyramid of stars of height 5.
Pyramid of height 5 row blanks * * 1 4 1 *** 2 3 3 ***** 3 2 5 ******* 4 1 7 ********* 5 0 9
INSTRUCTIONS:
Create an outer loop using "i" as the index, going from 1 to 5. Create an inner loop, using "j" as the index, to print the blanks. When i is 1, we need to print 4 stars, then when i is 2, we need to print 3 stars, and so on. This suggests that for each value of i, we need to print 5-i stars. So your "blanks" loop should run from 1 to 5-i. To print a blank, use this statement: fprintf ( ' ' ); end your inner loop Create another inner loop, using "k" as your index, to print the stars. When i is 1, we print 1 star, when i is 2, we print 3, and so on. So it seems like for a given value of i, k should go from 1 to 2*i-1. fprintf ( '*' ) end your inner loop. fprintf ( '\n' ); <-- End of this line of the picture. End the outer loop.
