c programming triangles?

#include<stdio.h>

#include <math.h>

int main()

{

unsigned int nh = 7; // set height (7 as an example)

unsigned int nw = 16; // set width (16 as an example)

float theta = atan(nw/nh);

unsigned int i,j,c;

for (i = 0; i < nh; i) {

if (i == 0)

c = 1;

else

c = (i 1)*round(tan(theta));

for (j = 0; j < c; j)

printf("%c",'*');

printf("%c",'\n');

} // i

return 0;

}

sure, first you need the number of rows, let's call it "n", then you need a "for" loop to create each of the rows. You may use a variable called "i" to iterate, like for (i=1; i<=n; i++).

Then you need an inner for loop to write the "*"s, but you need to iterate from 1 to i this time, so you may use another variable, call it "j", like for (j=1; j<=i; j++)

The rest sould be easy.

The idea is two use two nested for loops.

Like this (pseudo code):

size = 5;

for (i = 1; i <= size; i++) {

for (j = 1; j <= i; j++) {

print "*";

}

print "\n"; // end line

}
